    Long TQQQ vs Short SQQQ

    I was bored so I used one of my recent QQQ strategies to see if going Long TQQQ or short SQQQ is more profitable. Backtest is from September 2019 to today. (This is just a curve fitted backtest, not claiming any real profitability here.) This does not include borrowing fees. Cumulative log...

    Cannot log in Schwab from Chrome today?

    I tried some trading via schwab.com this week and got the "trading engine unavailable" message several times on Monday. Downloaded StreetSmart Edge and it works fine. It's no TOS but it's fine for shares.

    Yeah, you're right, it should be closer to 900%. Not sure why the number I got from etfdb is so off.

    Robinhooders Discover 3x Levered ETFs

    I wonder if we will ever see a 33% drop to wipe out these 3x funds? TQQQ is up 40% YTD despite the volatility.

    Fun Thread: Why I love my trading laptop

    Nice laptop. MSI seems to offer the most competitive pricing recently for "gaming" laptops. I will probably buy one once the Ampere series comes out.

    NinjaTrader EMA/SMA not showing fully

    The default NT SMA and EMA require 20 bars before they will start plotting. You will have to create custom versions of these indicators, modifying the BarsRequired parameter, if you want them to plot earlier than that. Alternatively, just load more historical data on your chart (I guess you...

    UGLD USLV DGLD DSLV UGAZ DGAZ ZIV VIIX TVIX soon to be delisted

    ZIV isn't even leveraged, interesting. I guess they don't want the headache of a VIX doubling in a day, which seems possible looking back at March. Now the only inverse VIX ETF left is SVXY, which is actually half leverage.

    Forbes: Outrageous Illinois Public Employee Salaries

    I'm not opposed to tree-trimmers making 100k. Working on a tree crew is hard and dangerous work, actually. I'm more worried about these dudes pulling down 300k+ a year, especially the pensions.

    Stocks slide as oil crashes below zero

    Was anyone actually able to see negative prices on whatever charting software you are using? My NT8 charts with CQG data never had May CL below zero: Also this is someone's TWS 30m but it doesn't actually have any negative candlesticks on the chart.

    Renaissance Says Quant Models Misfired During March Mayhem

    Kinda horseshit article. The beta models for their non-Medallion funds screwed up, big deal. That filing has some interesting stuff though on Medallion. It's explicitly short-term, trades ETFs and also Bitcoin futures.
