i thought about it but i guess its a equal trade not a nice tactic or maybe just because it does not let king to castle is a nice tactic ?

You win back your pawn, disable opponents castling and still ahead in development a lot. White has huge advantage, allmost +2.

Yes, 7. Qd5+ is the follow up

If ..7 Kf8 indeed; 8. Qxc5, then try to open the f file on the naked king with some kind of push in the center.

However if 7. Qd5+ Ke8 then 8. Qh4+ g6 and only then 9. Qxc5.

This opens the door for winning the rook on h8, as well as some ideas to trap the queen if black goes Qe7 then Qxc3 is nice (attacking the rook) and after Qxe4+??, dropping a pawn with check, just awkwardly go Kd1!! and White is flat out winning. Black's queen is almost trapped with Re1 coming and the h8 rook still hanging too.
