Options Market Now Open for T-REX 2X Long Ether Daily Target ETF (CBOE: ETU) and T-REX 2X Inverse Ether Daily Target ETF (CBOE: ETQ)
MIAMI – November 19, 2024 -- REX Shares and Tuttle Capital Management ("T-REX") are proud to announce that options trading is now available for the recently-launched T-REX 2X Long Ether Daily Target ETF (CBOE: ETU) and T-REX 2X Inverse Ether Daily Target ETF (CBOE: ETQ). The addition of options trading gives sophisticated investors a powerful new toolset to enhance indirect exposure to the spot price of ether, one of the most widely-traded cryptocurrencies.
ETU and ETQ are designed for traders seeking to magnify their exposure to spot Ether's daily price movement, with ETU offering 200% long exposure and ETQ providing -200% inverse exposure. With the addition of options trading, traders can access even greater precision, hedge their positions, or seize opportunities amid market swings, harnessing the latest frontier in digital assets.

The Fund is not suitable for all investors. The Fund will not invest directly in Ether or any other digital assets. The Fund is designed to be utilized only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential consequences of seeking daily leveraged (2X) and inverse (-2X) investment results, understand the risks associated with leverage and the use of shorting and are willing to monitor their portfolios frequently. The Fund does not seek to achieve its stated investment objective over a period of time other than a single/ one trading day. For periods longer than a single day, the Fund will lose money if the Underlying Security’s performance is flat, and it is possible that the Fund will lose money even if the Underlying Security’s performance increases over a period longer than a single day. The Shares will change in value, and you could lose money by investing in the Fund. The Fund may not achieve its investment objective. The Fund only intends to use reference assets that are traded on a U.S. regulated exchange. Investing in the funds is not equivalent to investing directly in Spot Ether as the fund will generally hold 0% of underlying shares.
The Funds’ investment adviser will not attempt to position each Fund’s portfolio to ensure that a Fund does not gain or lose more than a maximum percentage of its net asset value on a given trading day. As a consequence, if a Fund’s underlying security moves more than 50%, as applicable, on a given trading day in a direction adverse to the Fund, the Fund’s investors would lose all of their money.

Important Risks
Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk. The Fund has a daily leveraged investment objective and the Fund’s performance for periods greater than a trading day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which is very likely to differ from the Fund performance, before fees and expenses.
Options Contracts. The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political, changes in the actual or implied volatility of the underlying reference security, the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and economic events. For the Fund in particular, the value of the options contracts in which it invests are substantially influenced by the value of the underlying securities.
Ether Market Volatility Risk. The prices of ether have historically been highly volatile. The value of the Fund’s leveraged exposure ether – and therefore the value of an investment in the Fund – could decline significantly and without warning, including to zero.
Derivatives Risk. Derivatives are financial instruments that derive value from the underlying reference asset or assets, such as stocks, bonds, or funds (including ETFs), interest rates or indexes. Investing in derivatives may be considered aggressive and may expose the Fund to greater risks, and may result in larger losses or small gains, than investing directly in the reference assets underlying those derivatives, which may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective.
Cryptocurrency Risk. The Fund has exposure to the crypto asset platforms as a result of the Reference Assets attempting to reflect generally the performance of the price of Ether before payment of its expenses and liabilities. A crypto asset operates without central authority or banks and is not backed by any government. Crypto assets are often referred to as a “virtual asset” or “digital asset,” and operate as a decentralized, peer-to-peer financial trading platform and value storage that is used like money. A crypto asset is also not a legal tender. Federal, state or foreign governments may restrict the use and exchange of a crypto asset, and regulation in the U.S. is still developing. Further, the spot markets for crypto assets are fragmented and lack regulatory compliance and/or oversight. Crypto asset platforms may stop operating or permanently shut down due to fraud, technical glitches, hackers or malware. The Fund’s indirect exposure to crypto assets such as Ether may be affected by the high volatility associated with such crypto asset exposure. Future regulatory actions or policies may limit the ability to sell, exchange or use crypto assets, thereby impairing their prices. Crypto asset trading platforms on which Ether trades, and which may serve as a pricing source for valuation of spot Ether held by the Reference ETPs may be subject to enforcement actions by regulatory authorities.
Liquidity Risk. Holdings of the Fund may be difficult to buy or sell or may be illiquid, particularly during times of market turmoil. Illiquid securities may be difficult to value, especially in changing or volatile markets. If the Fund is forced to buy or sell an illiquid security or derivative instrument at an unfavorable time or price, the Fund may be adversely impacted. Certain market conditions or restrictions may prevent the Fund from limiting losses, realizing gains or achieving a high correlation with the Reference Assets.
Reference Asset Investing Risk. Issuer-specific attributes may cause an investment held by the Fund to be more volatile than the market generally. The value of an individual security or particular type of security may be more volatile than the market as a whole and may perform differently from the value of the market as a whole. The following is a summary of risk factors related to the Reference Assets as identified by the Reference ETPs in their registration statements – this is not purported to be a complete list of risks (references to “shares” in this section are to shares of the Reference ETPs).
New Fund Risk. As of the date of this prospectus, the Fund has no operating history and currently has fewer assets than larger funds. Although the Fund is new, the structure of providing long leveraged exposure to the price of Ether is not necessarily a new strategy as similar leveraged funds, such as those that primarily invest in cash settled futures contracts, currently trade on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. Like other new funds, large inflows and outflows may impact the Fund’s market exposure for limited periods of time. This impact may be positive or negative, depending on the direction of market movement during the period affected.
Leverage Risk. The Fund obtains investment exposure in excess of its net assets by utilizing leverage and may lose more money in market conditions that are averse to its investment objective than a fund that does not utilize leverage. An investment in the Fund is exposed to the risk that a decline in the daily performance of the Reference Assets will be magnified. This means that an investment in the Fund will be reduced by an amount equal to 2% for every 1% daily decline in the Reference Assets, not including the costs of financing leverage and other operating expenses, which would further reduce its value.
Non-Diversification Risk. The Fund is classified as “non-diversified” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. This means it has the ability to invest a relatively high percentage of its assets in the securities of a small number of issuers or in financial instruments with a single counterparty or a few counterparties.
