the risk over time of holding some/many of these ultra ETF's. Great traders if you are nimble, but not for most:

UVXY is an HOURLY INSTRUMENT... not intended for holding LONG...

Hold a basket of near to far dated UVXY/VXX PUTS... and wear ear muffs...you will not regret...

As an example...

UVXY 161216P13 UVXY 161216P15 UVXY 160317P15 UVXY 180117P05 VXX   170317P20 VXX   170317P25 VXX   170317P30 VXX   170616P25

 

Lastly, stop predicting every 5-10...100 points move...no one can...though many professes to...

 

This morning UVXY is down ~ 4% since close of yesterday...while SPX is flat...do you know why?

In my experience, UVXY has to be above the 15 min 200 MA, or above the 60 minute 200 MA.....or both.    And never hold it overnite....
