Easier to get popped for pattern day trading though, isn't it? Definitely gotta be a bit more cautious at least

Are the VXX options significantly cheaper?
I can't remember. Blackshire mentioned they are doing a split next week - will that make them even more affordable for trading?

You are right, it is cheaper, and if you get it right it is more profitable. But it can bite you faster as well.

I've found SPY to be a sort of middle ground between VXX and XLK as far as how fast the options move.
