Re: [ConservativeOptionStrategies] Maybe someone can help me out with this one

 

What you need to keep in mind with ultras is that they reprice themselves after the close - they mention this in their prospectus. If you look at them on a chart, you'll see that they don't really move 3x over time. I don't trade ultras because they are intended for day trading - not longer term positions.

If the market is turning bearish, as one of my subscriptions tells me, then I'm considering buying TZA, which closed @ 6.30.
The May $6 put is only .033 and even the June is 0.59 so protection is pretty cheap for this 3X contra, which makes for a very nice opportunity.
What am I missing?
