Is BOIL a leveraged ETF? Don't they all decay over time?


Yes. I want to see how we open but I will defend through covered calls.

It moves so much over a week or two sometimes that decay is the last thing you worry about.

For the decay, Can you just buy and sell the same day every so often to rest it?

I'll sell ITM calls to get out basically.

This action in nat gas is the kind of thing that happens at the end of a trend. And that trend has been down since end of last winter.


NG trend has been down since August, but definitely not since last winter.


The 1-2 month move up we had retraced the losses from the big move down following winter. Then it lost all ground and dropped to new lows. Admittedly, those 1-2 months were a solid uptrend and you could have made some serious money, but it didn't establish a new bull market and it definitely didn't establish itself. It's a very clear bear market bounce looking back. It's a very similar layout to what happens when anything hits a blow off top. You end up with a wonky looking bra where the right cup hangs lower than the left. That's why I'm not convinced it's not going lower in one more final move. And the daily trend is now firmly back down. But once it finishes and established the next move up, it will be very lucrative.

And watch NG futures to determine trend, not an ETF. ETF's are reactionary, even if closely linked. The best picture is the commodity itself.

We'll be able to get out. Don't worry.

If it's not trending up by morning, I'm going to sell ITM cc to escape.

Off topic a little but I thought you could choose which shares to be assigned? I had some Mara shares and did CCs on them. Some I had at $6.60 and others around $7.50. But I wanted to unload the $6.60 ones for my $6.50 cc but it took the higher ones. Any help is appreciated

Somewhere around 3 to 4am this morning, Russia gave double birds to the West declaring price caps will destabilize crude pricing. Brent and WTI took notice. Maybe that crude options trader that Kramer talked to a few days back, noting that crude would be the mother of all buys after Thanksgiving is having champagne this morning..

ETA - btw if you never had champagne and quiche for breakfast, try it, you'll like it!

Yes you should be able to adjust this. What brokerage are you using?

I use fidelity and adjust all the time to manage which shares get sold or assigned. In fidelity, under closed positions, you can select lot reallocation and pick which lots get selected.

I am not sure how much time that you might have to do this, as it might only be a few days after assignment

Possibly. I want to see this get at least a bit of a bounce before I do it. I will post here what I do.

Here's what I'm thinking. I want to give this at least thirty minutes to deal with the cash session open.

If we set a low, if we lose that low, I will sell ITM covered calls out a couple of weeks. I will post here what I do.

If we advance up, I want to sell cc around 32 if we get there.

RE: BOIL

I didn't respect my stop (degenerate).

Averaged down to a $31/share cost. Sold 12/16 C30s @4 per contract against all shares. Will net $300/lot if called away on 12/16 (~10% profit).

I typically target 10-15% monthly profit on buy/writes, so this isn't too bad considering the shorter time frame (2 weeks).

We'll see if it holds.
