A lesson learned - As a retired Quality Analyst from Lockheed Martin, trading an IRA, I've struggled with only trading long. I've learned with inverted ETFs, long is only half of the dynamic. Forced to take a cash tends to make one walk away from the market. This disengagement with the market and reengagement is dangerous. With the inverted ETFs one can stay engaged and work
I oppose a retail ban on ETFs based on commodities because future trading is well beyond my risk tolerance as I've heard horror stories that are about bad futures investments.

I worked as a CPA for many, many years and consider myself to be well informed regarding leveraged and inverse funds. I am not trading on margin. I am using my own hard earned money for trading.

Once again, people in government want to do what's best for you. Our elected representatives want to be able to control how I trade leveraged funds. I don't get to chose how my elected representatives trade, yet I am consistently taken advantage of by my elected representatives.
