Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Are AAPE and AAPX levered on the same thing?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. Both are levered on Apple, AAPE at +2 times and AAPX at +2 times the daily move."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Which one decays faster, AAPE or AAPX?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window AAPE\u2019s moved at 23% annualized and AAPX\u2019s at 28%, so AAPX has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can I hold AAPE or AAPX for a year?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Both reset every day, so the multiple in the name applies to a single day and the daily results compound. Over a year the total is not the multiple times the year\u2019s move, and in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less. ETFIQ makes no recommendation either way."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Which is cheaper, AAPE or AAPX?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"AAPE charges 0.75% a year and AAPX charges 1.05%, so AAPE is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus."}}]},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"ETFIQ","item":"https://etfiq.com/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Leveraged ETFs","item":"https://etfiq.com/leverage/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"AAPE vs AAPX","item":"https://etfiq.com/compare/leverage/aape-vs-aapx"}]},{"@type":"WebPage","name":"AAPE vs AAPX: which held to its multiple?","description":"AAPE sets out to return +2 times AAPL each day and AAPX +2 times.
