    OILU long-term trade - what do you think?

    If CL retraces its price perfectly back to $40 or $50, UWT will still only be worth between $0.40 - $0.60 a share. This is due to the math of compounding gains vs losses. You can do the calcs yourself in Excel in a few steps.

    SEC proposal to restrict 2x/3x ETFs re Proshares note

    Your Thoughts On Walk-forward Testing To Assess Robustness

    Your Thoughts On Walk-forward Testing To Assess Robustness
