The pilot will light easily with a match and stay lit for days once the
boiler burner does not come on.
However, as soon as the burner comes on, burns for a while, then goes off,
the pilot light is gone or it may stay for a while (like twenty minutes) and
then eventually goes off.
I can reproduce this every time.

But if you short $10,000 of TZA, then you will lose $6,900.
If I increase my TNA position to $8,100 on day 2 (30000*.9*.9/3=8100), when
