Bro, you can buy and hold these leveraged ETFs.

Ask yourself: exactly why is a 2x leverage bad? Why do you need to have only 1x? Why not... 1.5x?

Also if you are investing long term 2x leverage over long periods, you are actually reducing risk by doing time diversification.

I'd really like to invite you to read the book Lifecycle Investing or take a look at this article:
