  2. Well, $1,000 or $600 - it could have gone either way today given the sick liquidity sloshing about.

  3. It's gotta be just a correction. I mean, nothing fundamentally has changed. You still got India, china wanting gold/silver, and Iran is still out there, with that wacko lurking in the nuclear shadows.

  4. "SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- May silver dropped $1.822, or 12.6%, to $12.70 an ounce in New York, leading a broad decline among the metals futures. June gold sank $20, or 3.1%, to $616 an ounce after reaching a record $645 earlier in the session. "This originated in the silver pits," said Jon Nadler, an analyst at Kitco.com. There's "major profit-taking by funds that had loaded up ... in anticipation of the silver ETF," he said, and since the ETF still has not seen the light of day, "funds decided not to be pigs and took some money off the table."

    Day trading dream? Heh...can't get any of the servers to accept my orders. Everything is in chaos.

    how convenient, what do you think happened to limit stop orders in the meantime? My advice to novice traders thinking about trading silver futures - stay clear and wait.
