How to control ETF risk

Investing in ETFs, ensure that the fund owns the underlying asset outright, and does not create synthetic holdings constructed from derivatives.  Regularly check that the ETF price accurately tracks the underlying asset price.  Type "USO:$WTIC" or "GLD:$GOLD" into StockCharts.com to check. I acknowledge Chris Waltzek of GoldSeek for this advice.
