Methodology: each issue's direction is a live signal — long/short opens or holds a position, neutral means flat, and every direction change opens, flips, or closes it. Returns are direction-aware (a short gains when the price falls) and compound across positions from first observation to the latest issue. "Price move" is the stock's own raw change, shown separately. Neither represents actual portfolio performance.
Brief History (23 issues)
Up 3.42% to 77.15, reclaiming the 50-day at 73.49 with RSI at 58.8 and room to run — though the 0.79 RVOL says conviction is thin. Benign CPI and PPI knocked September hike odds from 55% to roughly 35% and fueled this leg; the next gates are month-end PCE and Nvidia's earnings. Watch how the 73.5 (SMA50) retest gets absorbed. Daily-reset 3x compounding bleeds in chop — treat it as a short-term tool, not an overnight core.
The 3x Nasdaq bull gained 2.11% to 74.60 as tech bounced on the in-line CPI print, with RSI at 55.5 in neutral-bullish territory. Price sits above the 20-day (68.60) and 200-day (60.12) SMAs but only barely reclaims the 50-day (73.70), the top of a chop zone. Cooling rate-hike fears favor tactical longs, but the week is still down 1.34%, and 3x volatility decay makes this a days-not-weeks trade.
Down 1.00% with RSI at 53.5. A 3x long on the Nasdaq into today's CPI print — leverage decays fastest in event-driven two-way volatility, making this an intraday instrument only.
Down 0.90% with RSI at 54.6. A 3x long on the Nasdaq with the index at record highs and CPI imminent — volatility decay steadily erodes principal in choppy tape, making this an intraday instrument only.
Up 3.39% as 3x leverage on the Nasdaq's 1.3%, with RSI at 55.6 reclaiming the 50-day at 74.35 after a 13.3% week. Leverage runs with the wind while indices set records, but decay bites the moment the tape chops — not an overnight hold.
Down 1.11% as 3x leverage amplified the Nasdaq's 0.1% slip, with RSI neutral at 52.7 pinned at the 50-day of $74.50. The week is still up 17.8%, but decay bites fast once index momentum fades — a day-trading tool, not an overnight hold.
3x long the Nasdaq, down 2.6% with tech today, 22% above the SMA200. A leveraged tool for short-term trend-following only; amplified swings amid AI-sector divergence — use strict stops.
Up 10.09% as 3x leverage on the Nasdaq's 2.59%, with RSI at 56.4 reclaiming the 50-day at $74.79. A 21.1% week shows decay temporarily masked by a one-way tape, but it remains a day-trading tool, not an overnight hold.
Up 5.17% as 3x leverage on the Nasdaq's 2.1%, with RSI neutral at 48.2 and price still below the 50-day at $74.84. A 12.3% monthly decline shows decay has materially bitten — a day-trading tool, not an overnight hold.
Down 2.9% at RSI 35.6 as the Nasdaq's 0.63% decline was tripled. With the Fed and both Microsoft and Meta reporting tonight, leveraged exposure into twin events is high risk — not a position to hold through the catalysts
Down 5.7% — 3x Nasdaq into an FOMC-plus-Big-Four-earnings week is a gambling chip, not a tool; cutting leverage is discipline
Bounced +5.5% into earnings week; tonight's Alphabet/Tesla double-header flips the direction switch — cutting leverage before earnings night is discipline
Down 4.54% to $67.53, -10.6% on the week and -17.3% on the month — in a grinding downtrend, 3x leverage bleeds from volatility decay in both directions. A day-trading tool; don't marry it overnight
Down 5.0% to $70.74, -16% on the month — 3x leverage in an AI unwind is a paper shredder; flat leverage before event night is common sense
Down 0.8% to $74.44 — on days the index is calm but its guts are torn, leverage decay bites hardest
Down 5.7% to $72.64, the 3x print of Nasdaq's -1.9% — with CPI tonight, gear down the leverage first
Up 0.9%, back above the 20/50-day cluster — early confirmation of a trend restart
Up 5.0% as the 3x Nasdaq refilled with the tech bounce; only above the 20/50-day cluster is it out of danger
A limp +0.7% for the 3x Nasdaq against a -7.6% week; until the chip repair confirms, leverage is an instrument of torture
-5.5% 3x Nasdaq with the chip pullback, below the 20/50-day; don't catch before confirmation
+4.2% 3x Nasdaq on the chip rebound, above the 50-day ($75); quick in, quick out
3x Nasdaq off 5.3% with the chip pullback; below the 50-day ($74.9) decay bites harder — quick in, quicker out
Nasdaq trend holds above the 50-day; short-term entries on the $74–75 retest, stop on a break
