In 1998 I believe it was, I lost about $2500 in a silver trade in 1 day. I remember it because I had only opened the account a week earlier with $5k(my first trading account!) Hurt like hell to blow up that fast. I know thats only a small amount of money now, but back then when I was young(23 years old), that was a freakin' fortune to me.
Wow you are such a loser: 1) I never said COMEX is trying to get anyone, I pointed out that it was quite unusual & suspicious to do such margin hikes and that it greatly exaggerated the correction. Unlike your sad ass who just talks, I was actually short around $47 and waiting for that correction. 2) If you want to pay for physical silver, go ahead. If you want to get it at reasonable mark-ups, let alone close to spot, it's another story. You tried to prove something with a lame Google search and it was thrown in your face. Delays, lack of inventory + high mark-ups are a fact, regardless of this correction that should have flooded the market with sellers 3) If you got silver, I'll buy at spot +5%. Bring it, joker.
