So if you are new and don't understand much, how has this idea of buying $10,000 of a very specific security come to you - was it suggested by someone?  You ought to do your own research and not go off tips.  Peter Lynch's book 'How to beat Wall Street' is good.

I would tend to agree with dmedin. It's a large amount of money to drop on something you admit to know nothing about. I don't really trade in those leveraged ETFs, but I don't think most of them are intended to be held long term. Maybe try trading on a demo account before you risk large amounts of money. But hey, it's your money, and sometimes the best lessons come with cost. Good luck with whatever you decide.

Yes i understand, thank you for your contribution. However how does it work? I cannot find much online, like is there a stop loss that triggers when the indexes returns go lower?  because I have seen this ETF go as low as $1 when the oil future contracts expired last month and everything went negative

    • Market Breakdown | WTI Oil, EURUSD, GBPNZD, EURAUDHere are the updates & outlook for multiple instruments in my watchlist.1️⃣ WTI Oil daily time frame️The market is trading in a long term bearish trend .After the last sharp bearish movement, the market is steadily recovering.Ahead, I see a major horizontal supply area.Probabilities are high, that the next bearish wave will initiate from there.2️⃣ EURUSD daily time frameAfter a breakout of a solid daily resistance, the market is preparing for its retest.Watch carefully the underlined zone and look for buying opportunities from there.3️⃣ EURAUD weekly time frameThe pair is currently approaching a weekly horizontal resistance cluster.Taking into consideration, that the pair is quite overbought, probabilities will be high to see a pullback from that4️⃣ GBPNZD daily time frameThe pair is currently retesting a broken neckline of an ascending triangle . As we discussed earlier, the trend line of a triangle and its neckline compose a contracting buy zone now.Chances will be high that the next bullish wave will initiate quite soon.For Additional confirmation use: Divergence Indicators
    • #CHFJPY: Classic Bearish Setup 🇨🇭🇯🇵   🔻CHFJPY has nicely respected a confluence zone based on a horizontal 4H resistance and a 0.5 retracement of the last bearish impulse.   The price formed a double top pattern on that and broke its neckline.   Probabilities will be high that the pair will drop lower soon. Goals: 141.172 / 140.363
