CleaRank Financial AI analysis of SQQQ
The score, the reasoning behind it, and what could move the price next.
SQQQ, the ProShares UltraPro Short QQQ fund, has a downward trend. Its price of $36.94 sits 26.86% below the 200-day average of $50.50 and 0.02% below the 50-day average of $36.95. The price is near the bottom of its 52-week range: it is 17.57% above the low of $31.42, and 59.28% below the high of $90.72.
Recent gains sit against a weaker longer record: the price rose 9.45% over the past month, fell 20.58% over the past three months and fell 44.11% over the past year. The 14-day RSI of 51.5 is in the neutral zone, and the MACD line is positive.
- The two nearest levels matter most: the 200-day SMA at $50.50 sits above the price, and the 20-day EMA at $36.62 sits below it.
- The 14-day RSI reads 51.5, in the neutral zone, with the MACD line positive; readings above 70 or below 30 mark stretched momentum.
- Costs compound: at 0.94% a year, SQQQ charges $94.00 on every $10,000 invested.
SQQQ is sitting right at its 50-day SMA. The price is under both the 50-day ($36.95) and the 200-day ($50.50) averages, and that alignment is why the trend reads down. Reclaiming the 50-day would be the first sign of repair. Above the price, the 200-day SMA at $50.50 is the next level a rise would meet.
The next marker below the price is the 20-day EMA, which sits at $36.62.

SQQQ price prediction 2030
Thousands of simulated paths from the price history. A range of outcomes, not a forecast.
Monte Carlo projection
Thousands of simulated paths for $10,000 in SQQQ, from its own past volatility. The shaded area holds 80% of them.
CleaRank's 4-year Monte Carlo simulation, based on 10 years of price history, projects that a $10,000 investment in SQQQ today could grow to about $6,038 by 2030 in the base case, with a 90th-percentile outcome near $21,752 and a 10th-percentile outcome around $1,676. The simulation models price only; at today's 9.45% yield, dividends would add to these figures. Projections are statistical simulations, not guarantees.

The same simulation in prices, year by year.
