I considered just ignoring the question"how can you outperform down day like this,
$UVIX is up nicely" -
$QS 's "down day" closed at 8.26, down
$0.34 (-3.95%). And yes, UVIX closed @ 20.08, up 2.88 (+16.74%) today, doing similarly well yesterday.
[1] I don't day-trade. Brokers don't allow it in cash accounts like mine. If I *SELL*, the proceeds are immediately available for a purchase, but what I *BUY* must "settle" for a few days before I can sell it without committing a "good faith violation." I tend to hold a position for several days or even weeks, to accumulate maximal net profit.
[2] UVIX only rarely outperforms QS, and then quite briefly and sporadiically. As this ratio chart shows, QS is the one to own except for occasional short, unpredictable, and likely uncontrollable periods.
[3] I already demonstrated these principles as applied to
$FNGU vs QS and
$CRML. Why suppose anything has changed?
