## Summary

Xtrackers SHORTDAX X2 DAILY UCITS ETF Capitalisation 1C is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from Xtrackers, launched in 2010. It aims to deliver a multiple, or the opposite, of one day’s move in what it tracks. The multiple resets daily, so over longer periods its return can differ a lot from the multiple of the index return. You buy and sell it through a share-dealing account or platform during stock-market hours, like a share. Its ongoing charge is 0.6% a year — about £60 a year on every £10,000 invested, taken from the fund's value rather than billed to you. Income from its investments is reinvested inside the fund, so it shows up as a rising price rather than cash paid to you.

> **Leveraged & inverse:** Built for short-term trading. Because the multiple resets every day, losses can build up quickly when held for longer, even if the index ends up where it started.

Latest close: **£0.4224** (01/10/2026).
