TMV tax-loss harvesting alternatives

Direxion Daily 20+ Year Treasury Bear 3X ETF (Direxion) tracks US Treasury 20+ Year Index. If you hold TMV 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 TMV during the 31-day wait.

Leveraged / inverse fund. These funds reset daily and can behave very differently from the index over weeks. Two leveraged funds on the same index (e.g. a 2x and a 3x, or two 3x funds from different issuers) may still be viewed by some as substantially identical — there is no IRS ruling either way. The alternatives below are limited to funds on a different index with similar leverage in the same direction.

Avoid as a replacement: same index as TMV

These track the same index (US Treasury 20+ Year Index). Buying one of them within the window is the classic “substantially identical” risk.

Unleveraged funds on the same index

These track US Treasury 20+ Year Index 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 TMV

Sell (trade) date:

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 TMV in every account (including IRAs) for the window — a reinvested dividend is a purchase.
Check automatic investments, a spouse’s accounts, and any TMV 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.
