I did a study a few years back on buying UVXY LEAP puts to profit on the eventual drop. It’s hard to make much because downside can’t go past zero. So assuming a few reverse splits, the max the long puts can earn is 29.99 (with UVXY trading for .01 in today’s prices). Fuzzy’s trade knocks a couple bucks off entry price than buying the put outright.
