Profit from the Commodity Boom with Ultra Oil & Gas ETF
by Sam Collins 03/20/09
ProShares Ultra Oil & Gas (DIG) -- This Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) seeks daily investment results which correspond to twice the daily performance of the Dow Jones Oil & Gas Index (DJUSEN).

Although the index is still in a down-trending consolidation, demand for crude oil and precious metal could drive DIG higher.
A break above the 50-day moving average at $24 would likely lead to a test of the recent highs at $31 to $33 and even to a run up to more than $50.
As with all Ultra ETFs be sure to limit your losses if the trade goes the wrong way. Stops should be placed at just under $20.
