I currently hold a couple leveraged funds and at various times in the past have held inverse funds. I also trade options. I have been trading for nearly 20 years and have a lot of experience. I never get in over my head on high-risk investments. I reserve the right to trade the funds, stocks, bonds and commodities that I deem are in my own best interest.
Restricting purchasing/selling of inverted or leveraged ETFs is pretty much equal to stoping regular people from the opportunity to earn income in stock trading.

Leveraged and inverse funds are at great help in handling stock market up and downturns. Exposing 15-20% of my portfolio to these ETFs helps me achieve my investment goals in longer run. I have been investing for 8 plus years and these leveraged and inverse ETFs have only helped in my financial growth and would prefer investing in them in future too.
I am writing to express strong opposition to new rules that would further restrict investment of leveraged and inverse funds.
I have used these funds simply to protect my existing investments in the stock market. I know financial advisors who also do so. Already there are checks and balances in place in Ameritrade for trading these funds.
No further restrictions should be added.
