What about buying SDS?? I was thinking of getting this one today. If the market is headed down another 3-4 weeks this one would be good to be in. Maybe a good time to buy today with the market green lol
Maybe you already know this but it's 2X leveraged and they are using options, so there is time value decay. You need the market to move down significantly and soon. If you try to hold it a month and the market goes sideways or loses volatility, you won't be even. Pull up a ten year chart and you'll get the picture. Most leveraged ETFs eventually go to zero and are liquidated. All that said the market is highly likely to dip in the next few weeks so now would be the time to try it.
