TECL tax-loss harvesting alternatives
Direxion Daily Technology Bull 3X ETF (Direxion) tracks S&P Technology Select Sector. If you hold TECL at a loss, these ETFs track a different index, which generally makes them less likely to be considered “substantially identical” — while still moving closely with TECL during the 31-day wait.

Sorted by 1-year correlation of daily total returns with TECL (through 2026-10-16).

Avoid as a replacement: same index as TECL
These track the same index (S&P Technology Select Sector). Buying one of them within the window is the classic “substantially identical” risk.

Unleveraged funds on the same index
These track S&P Technology Select Sector without leverage. Not suggested as swaps: a fund on the same index with different leverage is a gray area that some practitioners treat as potentially substantially identical.

30-day wash-sale calendar for TECL
The window is 30 calendar days before and after the sale (61 days total, IRC §1091(a)). Buying the replacement fund right away is the point of a swap; the dates above are about buying back the fund you sold, or anything substantially identical to it.
Before you swap
- Turn off dividend reinvestment for TECL in every account (including IRAs) for the window — a reinvested dividend is a purchase.
- Check automatic investments, a spouse’s accounts, and any TECL bought in the 30 days before the sale.
- Your broker generally only flags wash sales for the identical security in the same account. You are responsible for the rest.
- Read how wash sales work and the FAQ, then confirm your plan with a tax professional.
