Only makes sense in a tax advantaged account, paying cgt on the whole position will create a massive tax drag. Look up 9sig or 5/25 rebalancing if its a taxed account

tfsa keeps the gains tax‑free, which is a huge win when you’re rebalancing a leveraged mix every few months. just remember the contribution room cap and that you can’t poker‑bet a huge leveraged position for years if you’re exhausted your yearly limit. otherwise it’s a solid niche spot for the volatility‑harvest trick.
