Which came closer to its stated multiple, TSLQ or TSLT?

Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, TSLQ finished 13.5 points from what its multiple implies and TSLT finished 4.8 points from its own, so TSLT came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.

Are TSLQ and TSLT levered on the same thing?

Yes. Both are levered on Tesla, TSLQ at -2 times and TSLT at +2 times the daily move.

Which one decays faster, TSLQ or TSLT?

Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window TSLQ’s moved at 52% annualized and TSLT’s at 52%, so TSLQ has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.

Can I hold TSLQ or TSLT for a year?

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’s move, and in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less. ETFIQ makes no recommendation either way.

Which is cheaper, TSLQ or TSLT?

TSLQ charges 1.15% a year and TSLT charges 1.05%, so TSLT is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.

TSLQ in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: TSLQ returned +19.7% where its own daily promise gave +17.3%, 2.4 points over. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and −2 times TSLA's −16.6% implies +33.1%, which makes TSLQ look 13.5 points short. 15.8 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any −2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. TSLQ aims to return -2 times TSLA's move each day, then resets. Over one day it does that. Over longer, the daily results compound, so the total is not -2 times the period's move: in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less, and in a steady run it can be more. TSLA moved at 52% annualized over that window. That is what decides how far the two figures separate: the same fund on a calm underlying and a violent one is a different product.

TSLT in plain words

Three months to Sep 30, 2026: TSLT returned −37.9% where its own daily promise gave −35.6%, 2.4 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times TSLA's −16.6% implies −33.1%, which makes TSLT look 4.8 points short. 2.4 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. TSLT aims to return +2 times TSLA's move each day, then resets. Over longer, the daily results compound, so the total is not +2 times the period's move: in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less, and in a steady run it can be more.
