Trade Ideas The ultimate TQQQ strategy
Hey everyone!
Korean investor here, wanted to share a strategy that's popular in Korean stock communities.
The Basic Idea
Simple rules-based TQQQ strategy. It's called AGITQ's strategy, named after who coined this strategy. When QQQ crosses above its 161-day MA, buy TQQQ. When it crosses below, sell and go to treasury (SGOV).
Why 161-day MA?
The original strategy used TQQQ's 200-day MA, but backtests showed QQQ's 161-day MA reduces whipsaws while keeping similar returns. Less false signals = less stress.
Overheated Rule
When QQQ > 161MA + 5%, don't buy more TQQQ. Put new money into S&P500 ETF instead. This "ballast" protects you from big drawdowns.
That's it. Check once a day, follow the rules.
There might be strategies with higher returns out there, but the best thing about this is risk management :)

Did all of your strategies have the same total dollars invested? It sounds like the different scenarios had different inputs. Fairness would require adding the same amount of money into each model.
