As a knowledgeable trader, we should have the right to trade these positions and not be told we are not
I would actually prefer to see increased availability of leveraged and inverse funds. The leverage is comparable to having a margin account while using a cash account. The inverse works the same on shorting without a margin account. The funds hold the margin and manage the margin risks.
My "complication" is futures that move overnight while the funds are unavailable to
Another invasion of Americans personal freedom. Leveraged and inverse funds are publicly traded and have been approved
for the public to trade. I understand the risks and have an understanding of these entities. There is no need to impose any kind of regulations or added requirements to any tools I use in my investment strategies.
