Exchanges and Undervalues

Whenever I play my friends, my signature move is queen for queen early in the game, usually by move 10 or under. Is this a problem? Firstly, it puts my opponent off since they dont have a queen but I am fine with this. I undervalue queens a lot. Is this a good thing or should I change my tactics? My friends tend to steer away from using their queen early in the game since they know my signature move.

A signature move is always a problem.  This means you are not taking into account what the position is telling you you should do.
