Q: Is a Bear 3X Commodity ETF Worse than 3X Bull Commodity ETF?

A: It doesnt matter you should only ever be shorting both, leveraged ETFS get destroyed over time. Look at a 5 year chat of NUGT, or UVXY, that should tell you all you need to know about which side you want to be on.

Sounds like you have winning plan, shorting FAZ, SDS,, SQQQ,in bullmarkets , or 5 years short UVXY most markets LOL.
This is not a prediction, but i would not short FAS, TQQQ, SPXL,SSO, UPRO, they have going profitable past 5 years+ including longer time frames + from 2008. That may not affect you, since you said commodity- those are 3 X SPY, 3xQQQ. I like big trends /big letters
