Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Are DIG and ERY levered on the same thing?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. Both are levered on energy, DIG at +2 times and ERY at -2 times the daily move."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Which one decays faster, DIG or ERY?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window DIG\u2019s moved at 21% annualized and ERY\u2019s at 21%, so DIG has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can I hold DIG or ERY 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, DIG or ERY?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"DIG charges 0.95% a year and ERY charges 0.99%, so DIG is cheaper.
