Does anyone know a NASDAQ index ETF fund ticker? I am looking for a NASDAQ index ETF fund. I prefer ETF's rather than mutual funds for much better buy/sell control when swing trading.

I was researching this last week. The S&P has SPY, but can't seem to find NasDaq's equivalent.
You might have to settle for PowerShares' QQQ.
If you're into leveraged ETFs:
2x: QLD / QID
3x: TQQQ / SQQQ
Thanks for the response! I have been watching QQQ and SPY. I've swing traded SPY, although I swing trade VTI more than SPY. I'll also watch ONEQ, and wait for the price to drop
I already did one swing trade with QQQ. I bought it for 107.80 and sold it a week later at 109.50, a 1.58% gain in only a week. I've been watching for QQQ to drop back to about 108 before buying it again. VTI is my favorite index EFT to swing trade. VTI is a good buy now at close to 107, although it has dropped to about 106 in the recent past. Usually, I usually buy VTI at about 108 and sell it at about 110. It usually takes 1 - 4 weeks to make about a 1.5% gain. I'll make an annual return of about 20% on the money invested in VTI if I can buy/sell it 13 times in a year.
To each his own.
No one can predict the swings, and you are probably overconfident if you think you can do it 13 times in a row. If you do, please tell me tomorrow's lottery numbers
On the plus side, if you buy VTI at 107 and say it kept falling to 70, you can average down and make a good gain on the next substantial upswing. As long as you have the intestinal fortitude to throw cash at a losing trade. It's not like VTI will ever go to 0, unlike a single stock. And if worse comes to worst and you run out of money, you can just convert it into a buy-and-hold and enjoy the dividends.
