Even given that, I don't see any reason I couldn't also just mimic what QQQ does with the MCP.

Real question, where are you going to buy the swap agreements?
If you're asking about the average person, no.

I am in the "false confidence" stage of Dunning Kruger Syndrome for finance stuff, so I personally would do swap agreements, but I'm not an average case.

I realize I might have been mixing up QQQ with ultra pro QQQ… anyway, yeah, you can replicate QQQ. I was thinking of Ultra Pro QQQ.
I mean, even still, my point stays the same; if you have access to their strategies, I don't see why you can't just get the MCP to directly mimic that.
Because it is not possible for you (personally) to buy the underlying components of leveraged ETFs.
Yeah, actually I think I was getting confused on some of the terminology. It looks like you're right.

Still, as you said, just mimicking regular QQQ is achievable.
