i am not aware of a single instrument that encapsulates what you are after; but the components do exist. at least in canada, there are many options traded on the montreal exchange that are based on toronto etfs.  all the standard tsx etfs are represented, as well as some of the more exotic.  with a regular investment account approved for options you should be able to do what you want. in a parallel vein, there are also double down and up etfs.  one such example are the horizons betapro series of etfs.  they are designed to return double the market up or down on a daily basis and reset daily.  they do need to be watched closely, however. good luck
