Re: ETF
Opportunities Trust (File Nos. 333-234544 and 811-23439)
Dear
Ms. Ezra:
This
letter provides the responses of ETF Opportunities Trust (the “Trust” or the “Registrant”) to the comments of
the staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) that you provided to
Practus, LLP on April 29, 2025. The comments related to the Post-Effective Amendment (“PEA”) No. 237 to the registration
statement of the Trust, which was filed on March 12, 2025, under Rule 485(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The PEA was filed
to register shares of a new series of the Trust, the OTG Latin America ETF, (the “Fund”). For your convenience, I have summarized
the comments in this letter and provided the Trust’s response below each comment. Capitalized terms not defined in this letter
shall have the same meaning ascribed to such term in the PEA.

Staff requests that you please file this comment response letter on EDGAR such that the Staff has at least five business days to review.

Principal
Investment Strategies
2. Comment:
The second paragraph of the Principal Investment Strategies states that the “Fund may
invest up to 20% of its assets in countries other than Latin American countries.” The
Staff notes that the Fund may change from time to time the countries it may invest. Please
disclose if the Fund tends to invest in developing or emerging markets or countries as well.
Additionally, to the extent that the Fund knows which countries please disclose those countries.
Response:
The Trust has revised the disclosure to address your comment. At this time, it is not known which specific countries the Fund will invest
in.

Risks
3. Comment:
The Staff notes that the Fund will be concentrated. Please consider including a concentration
risk in the Principal Risks and in the Additional information about Risks section.
Response:
The Fund will not be concentrated in any industry for purposes of the Fund’s fundamental investment limitations as they are set
forth in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information. The Fund has revised the disclosure to clarify that it may focus its investments
in certain countries. The Fund has added risk disclosures to reflect this fact.
Performance
4. Comment:
Please consider including the performance information for 2024 in the bar chart.
Response:
The Trust has revised the disclosure to address your comment.
5. Comment:
The Staff
notes that the information in the Average Annual Returns discloses the MSCI AWCI ex USA Index.
However, the Staff notes that this is not consistent with disclosures contained in the N-14
that has also been filed with respect to the Fund. Please consider reviewing and revising
the information.
Response:
The Trust has revised the disclosure to address your comment.
