Our read on TDAQ

ETF.net Research

BMost Nasdaq-100 income funds sell calls a month at a time. TDAQ holds QQQ and writes out-of-the-money calls each morning that expire the same day, harvesting same-day premium and resetting its upside cap daily. Income lands monthly.

Stated mandate

The actively managed ETF seeks current income and capital appreciation through a long QQQ position combined with short call options. It sells out-of-the-money calls each day, generally with zero days to expiration.

Why people hold it

  1. 01An actively managed long QQQ position with out-of-the-money calls written each trading day, generally expiring that day. The upside cap resets each morning, not once a month.tappalphafunds.com
  2. 02Because the calls sit out of the money, the fund keeps room to follow QQQ higher up to the strike before the overlay starts trading away gains.tappalphafunds.com
  3. 03Options premium is harvested daily and paid out monthly, the cadence the fund has run since its 2025 launch.tappalphafunds.com

Worth knowing

  1. 01Fees run 0.83% a year, above the 0.74% median for Nasdaq-100 options-income funds and well above scaled rivals like JEPQ and GPIQ at 0.35%.
  2. 02Same-day options are sensitive to sudden moves and can trade at wider spreads, so morning-by-morning execution matters more here than in a monthly-call fund.finance.yahoo.com
  3. 03It launched in September 2025, so the live record is short, and it reaches the Nasdaq-100 by holding QQQ rather than the 100 stocks directly.
