Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Are PLTA and PLTL levered on the same thing?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. Both are levered on Palantir Technologies, PLTA at +2 times and PLTL at +2 times the daily move."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Which one decays faster, PLTA or PLTL?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window PLTA\u2019s moved at 75% annualized and PLTL\u2019s at 75%, so PLTA has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can I hold PLTA or PLTL 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, PLTA or PLTL?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"PLTA charges 0.95% a year and PLTL charges 0.20%, so PLTL 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":"PLTA vs PLTL","item":"https://etfiq.com/compare/leverage/plta-vs-pltl"}]},{"@type":"WebPage","name":"PLTA vs PLTL: which held to its multiple?","description":"PLTA sets out to return +2 times PLTR each day and PLTL +2 times.
