I recently ran into this article on an Ultra oil ETF strategy:
http://www.howtowriteoptions.com/ultra-covered-call-strategy-fails
By shorting each side of the Long/Short ETFs I will eventually come up on the positive end. Not sure how effective this will be in real life but long term on CAPs combo-ing these ETF is a sure winner.
I think all of these Ultras are going to crash hard. I have received several warnings from my broker on the risk of these funds and some of my friend’s brokers will not even execute transactions on these.

Market is pointing down for now so I believe this is a short term play only.

I'll stay this for ALL the levered ETF's out there, but especially the 3x levered ones...They're going to fail. Choppy markets decimate these things, as evidenced by the reverse splits of FAZ and FAS. UYG and SKF are also negative on the year... rather than buying and holding the one that's supposed to go in the direction you want it to go, its much better to simply short the one that is going in the opposite direction. Or short them both.

I am not sure we are at the bottom, but I am sure that we are very close. I am recommending a long position in this etf. Every time there is a 10% drop in the index you should buy, and every time there is a 10% increase in the index you should sell. I do not recommend purchasing and holding ultra etfs long-term. The fees are simply too high. Play the trading range and don't get too greedy.

Easiest way to play the Dow Jones Industrial Average. We think it's moving higher...volatility on way up but this should be a no-brainer buy and hold.

Long term bull on the market, so naturally I think the Ultra-Dow will outperform the S&P
