The T-Rex 2X Long Ether Daily Target ETF, ETU, drew fresh inflows of $856,432 on February 13, 2026, a sizable move for a fund with $10.81 million in assets under management. The single-day haul amounts to roughly 7.9% of its AUM, underscoring renewed speculative demand for leveraged Ether exposure despite a bruising quarter for the underlying token.
The related asset, ETH-USD, is currently trading at $2,073.26 after shedding about 35.2% over the past three months. Its 1-day technical signal screens as a cautious Sell, suggesting that short-term momentum and trend indicators remain under pressure even as contrarian buyers step into leveraged products.
ETU’s latest surge in capital highlights how some investors are treating the recent Ether drawdown as a high-risk entry point, using daily 2x leverage to bet on a potential rebound. Yet the combination of sharp recent losses in Ether and a negative technical backdrop means flows into ETU may reflect tactical trading rather than a durable shift in longer-term positioning.
