BOIL is designed to be used for short term trading and only truly tracks natural gas on a intraday basis.

Commodity ETFs have to roll futures contracts, natural gas is typically in contango causing BOIL to 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.
