Fund Identity
What it is, who runs it, where it lives.
The Fund's primary investment objective is to pay weekly distributions.
The Fund is an actively managed ETF that maintains between 105% and 150% notional leveraged long exposure to Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) through options contracts, swap agreements, direct stock holdings, and/or Leveraged ETFs, rebalancing daily. Simultaneously, the Fund employs a covered call strategy—writing out-of-the-money call options against the leveraged long portion—to generate weekly income distributions. Short-term U.S. government securities and money market funds are held as collateral and for additional income. The exact leverage level within the 105%–150% range is determined daily by the Adviser using technical analysis of TSLA price behavior.

Ordinary Income
The Fund uses exchange-traded and FLEX Options on TSLA to obtain 105%–150% leveraged long exposure, rebalancing daily based on options delta. A covered call overlay writes out-of-the-money calls against the leveraged long portion to generate weekly distribution income, capping upside participation beyond the strike price. Options maturities range from 1 day to 6 months and are rolled as they expire or are exercised.

— Return of Capital
ROC is not free money — it lowers your cost basis. When shares are sold, capital gains are computed against the lower basis.
Composition · Narrative
The Fund targets weekly distributions funded primarily by covered call premiums and income from collateral holdings. Distributions may consist of return of capital (ROC) to the extent they exceed current and accumulated earnings and profits, which would reduce NAV over time. Distribution amounts are variable week-to-week based on TSLA's recent total return and implied volatility.

Price $17.38 is below the 200-day SMA ($18.19); 50-day SMA $17.42. The 50-day SMA sits below the 200-day — an established downtrend, no recent crossover. Moving-average signals are a timing aid, not a recommendation — weigh them against the distribution profile and framework score.
