BOIL: Where Has The La Nina Gone?

The ProShares Ultra Bloomberg Natural Gas ETF is unsuitable for long-term investors due to 'roll decay' and 'volatility decay,' leading to significant losses over time. However, the BOIL ETF can deliver substantial short-term gains during periods of high natural gas price volatility, such as during the COVID-19 reopening and the Russia/Ukraine war. Seasonal trading opportunities also exist for BOIL, particularly during the March-to-June and September-to-November periods, driven by cooling and heating demand speculation.

BOIL: Playing With Fire

Natural gas is essential but challenging to profit from; BOIL ETF offers leveraged exposure to potential price increases. BOIL aims for 2x the daily performance of natural gas futures, but this leverage can amplify both gains and losses. BOIL's strategy involves rolling futures contracts, offering convenience but also risk due to volatility decay over time.

BOIL: Consider As Natural Gas Peak Demand Season Approaches

Natural gas prices are volatile, with recent lows due to high inventories but potential for seasonal demand spikes and geopolitical impacts. The ProShares Ultra Bloomberg Natural Gas ETF offers leveraged exposure to U.S. natural gas futures but carries significant time decay risk. U.S. energy policy uncertainty and the Ukraine war could drive natural gas price volatility, especially as winter demand peaks.
