BOIL is designed to be used for short term trading and only truly tracks natural gas on a intraday basis.
BOIL decays because it is a commodity ETF and leveraged ETF.
Commodity ETFs have to roll futures contracts, natural gas is typically in contango causing BOIL to decay.
Leveraged ETFs re-balance each day to maintain the leverage, re-balancing results in volatility decay.
BOIL can be used for short term trading but as you can see by this chart should not be held for long periods of time.
