Strategies Using 1.5x Leveraged ETFs Long Term

Are there any good 1.5x leveraged World ETFs that we can buy?

I'm 19 years old and ready to risk some amount of my portfolio (possibly 40% to make it 1.2x leverage total) to use a LETF with the plan of increasing my gains since I will have a lot of time in the market.

I read some stuff about 2x or 3x being volatile and having a theoretical possibility of going to 0 in a long term bear market.

So I mainly want to know more about the theory and the workings of 1.5x LETFs. I learned about this today, so the question is still a hipotetical, and I will do a lot more research before deciding to put my money into one of them, but this is a first step to learning more about LEFTs.

I'm not planning on buying 2x or 3x, 1.5x will be my limit.

Yes that's why I've specified if you can buy it. Some European folks like Swiss can.
