Hello, I wish to keep the ability to use leveraged and inverse ETFs in my trading. I use these to protect my account. For example, I use the 2x leveraged inverse treasury ETF (symbol TBT) to protect bond holdings in my portfolio as interest rates rise. I have used inverse Nasdaq 100 leveraged ETF (symbol SQQQ) to protect my holdings in technology stocks when the market enters a down trend. We need to allow the small investor to have these tools. If they are unavailable to us then we are at a disadvantage to the big banks and brokerages.
