Kris Sidial added,
in case you don’t know, $UVXY is not driven on supply & demand, the price is derived off of VX futures
Hey man, I’m afraid you’re wrong on this. When there is strong demand for UVXY shares they start to trade slightly above NAV. That incentives APs to buy VIX futures in the market and deliver them to the ETN sponsor in exchange for shares of UVXY which they can then
Great thread, very informative. But now I’m going to embarrass myself with a noob question... what’s AP? 
Authorised participant. Someone who can create or redeem shares in an ETF or ETN by buying the basket of constituents and delivering it to the fund in exchange for a new share (creation) or delivering a share to the fund and receiving a basket of the constituents (redemption)
They are responsible for keeping the price of the ETF in line within its NAV, since they buy the constituents and sell shares when the share price is higher than NAV, and vice versa when the price is lower than NAV.
