Looking at a two year chart of the Dow Jones U.S. Oil & Gas Index, you see a very steady rise over that period.

Within that rise, I also see a selloff of about 10% that occurs like clockwork approx every four months and lasts for about a month before the advance resumes.

If you date the current advance from the low in early Jan, then we are 3+ months into that advance.

I'm wondering whether we may have a leveraged play here by the end of April using the ultrashort (2X) ETF DUG?

Trees don't grow to the sky and a lot of the index components have difficult comparisons coming this quarter.

If I do it, it will be with tight stops.
