When Does Your Leveraged ETF Make Its Move?
The ETF Time of Day tool shows how a leveraged or inverse ETF has tended to move during any window of the trading day. Pick a featured ETF, choose a start and end time in 30-minute steps from the open to the close, and the tool measures what that stretch of the day has done across years of intraday history.
Leveraged and inverse ETFs do not move evenly through the session. The first thirty minutes after the open and the last hour into the close are often where most of the daily range happens, while the middle of the day can be much quieter. Knowing when a name has historically made its move can matter as much as knowing which direction you expect.
Instead of guessing, this tool lets you measure a specific window directly. For the time slice you choose, it shows the average and median move, the largest spike and the largest crash with the dates they happened, and how often that window finished green versus red.
Choose any start and end time in 30-minute steps, from the 9:30 open to the 4:00 close, and the tool measures only that slice of the session.
See the average and median percentage move for your chosen window across years of intraday sessions, so a few outliers do not distort the read.
See the largest up move and the largest down move the window has ever produced, each with the date it happened.
See how often the window has finished higher versus lower, with the count of green and red sessions behind each percentage.
Select a featured leveraged or inverse ETF and set the start and end of the time window you care about, such as the open, the midday lull, or the final hour.
Check the average and median move for that window to see the size and direction the ETF has typically delivered over that part of the day.
Look at the biggest spike and biggest crash to understand how far the window has run in both directions, and when those outliers occurred.
Use the green and red probabilities to judge how reliable the directional tendency has been before you build a trade around it.
