Technical Overview
The rotation picture for TZA tells a story that has been building quietly since the final weeks of February, and it is now registering at a level that demands attention. After spending the better part of November through late February in a sustained compression band between roughly $6.20 and $7.55, the fund has staged a decisive directional move in recent sessions — closing at $7.38 on March 13, up from a February trough of $6.23. That represents a 18.5% advance off the near-term floor in fewer than three weeks, a pace that is unusually brisk even for a 3x leveraged instrument within a single month-long window.
