Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Are TSDD and TSLQ levered on the same thing?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. Both are levered on Tesla, TSDD at -2 times and TSLQ at -2 times the daily move."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Which one decays faster, TSDD or TSLQ?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window TSDD\u2019s moved at 52% annualized and TSLQ\u2019s at 52%, so TSDD has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can I hold TSDD or TSLQ 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, TSDD or TSLQ?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"TSDD charges 0.95% a year and TSLQ charges 1.15%, so TSDD 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":"TSDD vs TSLQ","item":"https://etfiq.com/compare/leverage/tsdd-vs-tslq"}]},{"@type":"WebPage","name":"TSDD vs TSLQ: which held to its multiple?","description":"TSDD sets out to return -2 times TSLA each day and TSLQ -2 times.
