For me at least. The volatility in SRS and FAZ are nightmarish.

Started out in all the usual inverse stuff, profitable…then wham everything swaps to the other side. I cover with losses.

Then what do you know, everything I just sold at a loss is back on a buy at higher prices. Ok back in. Now I don’t trust anything. I went back into FAZ, SRS, TZA, shorting ERX, but resold SRS out of fear, now I want back in.

Had YGE, SOL, and SOLF, but sold out of fear of another market swap, but YGE and SOL both popped post my buy and sell. All of them had buy signals, but I sold for fear. Today is not easy.
