For SMST, tracking metrics like SMST IV rank helps traders understand whether current implied volatility is historically high or low.

The Defiance Daily Target 2X Short SMCI ETF (the “Fund”) seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of two times the inverse (-200%) of the daily percentage change in the share price of Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI). Because the Fund seeks daily inverse leveraged investment results, it is very different from most other exchange-traded funds and there is no guarantee that the Fund will meet its stated objective. The Fund should not be expected to provide -200% of the cumulative return of SMCI for periods greater than a single trading day.
