There are times when stock market is bullish and when is bearish. It is not always in one direction although a lot of buy-and-hold investors believe that there is only one direction – only up. But when you see what stock market have done during last decade you will see that there are also negative periods.
It is important to understand how to manage your portfolio also in these negative periods on stock markets. The first step that is necessary is to understand when situation is bearish in any particular stock , sector or total market.

I have noticed during my regular ETF analysis routine that Russell 2000 ETF is now relatively weak. This index ETF tracks small caps on US stock market . It is better to choose SP500 index ETF with symbol SPY to trade long ETF swing and day trading strategies these days.

I do not use leveraged ETF very much. I use them rarely. I prefer to open long position in standard ETF and when I want to do short selling I prefer to short normal , i.e. non-leveraged ETF shares.
I do not like behavior of leveraged ETF for longer term period holding.
