Tommaso, Ken is correct and he made an excellent trade.

Here is a link to the cutoff times for Rydex funds.The dynamic funds all have an early cutoff time.
rydexfunds.com

Here is an example of dynamic fund holdings, per Rydex.
>>The Venture 100 Fund seeks to provide investment results that correspond to 200% of the inverse performance of the NASDAQ-100 on a daily basis. The fund will do this by engaging in short sales of securities and utilizing futures and options contracts on securities. The fund will also hold U.S. Government securities to collateralize the futures and options contracts. The fund may also engage in equity index swaps and enter into repurchase agreements.<<

Tommaso, if you have an account directly with Rydex, then you actually own shares in a Master Account Fund they have set up. Within that Master Fund, you can change your allocations twice a day between their leveraged bull or bear funds or a money-market fund.

It's a very unique way to get around the SEC regs, and it works. THere are no fees associated with allocation changes. I believe the min account size is $25,000.
