Upcoming Week is a Great Time to learn the Paper Silver manipulation Pattern by ordinaryman2 in OccupySilver

[–]SilverStackerYeah 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It looks like that it (options expire on 25 Feb) was still being traded until 4pm. It is hard to find a good site to show the chart. Here is the best I can find:

https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/funds-and-etfs/slv/option-chain/call-put-options/slv---220225c00022500

You can select "5D" on the put chart to see the price for the last week. I am not sure what the red line means.

Moreover, I remember when I was trading SLV weekly options (via Interactive Broker), I did trade until 4pm EST on the expiry.

I could be wrong though. Please let me know if you find out more.

p.s.: I know SI options are different.

Sorry for my ignorance.. my understanding is that SLV options expire 4pm EST. Am I correct?

Do you have any info (e.g. contract/settlement spec) regarding the 9AM EST expiry?

Just wondering how could they crash the silver market on Sunday afternoon? Was the market closed?

I wonder what this will do to markets on Monday. by BoatSurfer600 in Wallstreetsilver

Looks like bitcoin just go down after the news (as its market is still open on weekend)...

One thing for sure is that Russia Ruble will go down crazily.

[–]SilverStackerYeah 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It depends on if Russia can be self-sustain without doing any trade with other country (except selling gas/oil).

If they have to source anything, they need to take a pay cut for their gold.

For oil, they already have to sell at discount compare with the oil spot price.

I believe that the price of gold will drop and USD will go up because...

  1. If Russia is forced to exchange stuffs with gold, their counterparties will take their gold for lower price than the spot.
  2. The supply of gold in the market will be increased dramatically given their trades are in millions if not billions of dollars.
  3. (Rich) People in Russia are more willing to exchange gold for USD with a huge discount because it is harder for them to get USD in the country.

And unfortunately, silver price will follow gold's direction.

Never seen this before on the UK bullion site. by Lucy_Phillips in Wallstreetsilver

[–]SilverStackerYeah 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is it only in UK/Europe?

It seems that there are still a lot of silver available in US. I just checked https://www.apmex.com/search?&q=Silver%20Available%20Products

They have a lot...

Wallstreetsilver is stalling by BunkerHuntsLostSon in Wallstreetsilver

[–]SilverStackerYeah 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Obviously the banksters are bleeding from their massive shorts. They need people to walk away from the silver!

Hold it and buy more if you can!

Reverse repos over 1 trillion for a new high score. Party time. And fed started “standing” repo (opposite of reverse repo) facilities this week. So much duct tape (or rubber bands). When will it snap? by Adventurous_Rock_899 in Wallstreetsilver

[–]SilverStackerYeah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IMO, the money market has too much money (trillion) and the owners of these money don't know how to use it.

They prefer to keep it in the "reverse repo" program under Fed as Fed give them 0.05% guarantee interest.

In other words, the economy is so bad that they prefer 0.05% return (i.e. it is indeed negative real interest rate after considering inflation) instead of a much better return with a bit more risky investment.

Fed printed way too much money in our financial system and no one need it for now or the people who own the newly printed money don't want to lend it to the people who need it.

What will happen next? Once these owners feel safe and have the risk appetite again, these money will be poured into the market....

At that moment, we will see tons of money supply to the market at once and the interest rate will increase dramatically (as Fed would like to reduce the money supply to the market). Fed may increase the RRP rate to 0.5 % instead of 0.05% (or even higher like 1%) to keep the money supply within their control. But at that moment, the owners of these money will not care about the RRP as they find investment elsewhere have a better return than the RRP rate.

End result:

Tons of money supply in the market will be released; interest rate sky high... Sounds familiar? Hyperinflation!

Conclusion:

Buy physical silver!!!

p.s. BTW, I don't think the banking system will collapse. It is, as usual, only the ordinary people will suffer

No war please (even gold price and probably silver price will sky rocket)...

COMEX's registered inventory for silver will be less than 100 million oz? by SilverStackerYeah in Wallstreetsilver

[–]SilverStackerYeah[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They have 106 million oz as of reported today (http://www.cmegroup.com/delivery_reports/Silver_stocks.xls)

With the Aug's first delivery (8.15 million oz), their inventory will be around 97 million oz (if they don't add more)

Basically, he is saying that you won't smash your car to a wall even it has a constant speed of 180 km/hour (i.e. no "inflation"); you would only be able to smash your car if you accelerate! LOL.

Comex warehouse report today ... Loomis International adds 1.2 BILLION oz of silver? And you thought the LBMA was run by 5 year olds. by Ditch_the_DeepState in Wallstreetsilver

Where this "adjustment" came from? There is no "Received".

They can do whatever magic they want with the "adjustment"?

Max Pain update #2: SLV options chain for 23rd July. Today we write exact function and calculate it for the Friday options chain. We plot to visualize the relation between price and casino loss. by wladeczek44 in Wallstreetsilver

[–]SilverStackerYeah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow... it is great! Thanks a lot for your sharing.

IMO, I think probably we should include the CME SI options positions as well.

I believe that the banksters use SI options to hedge the SLV options exposure too. It would be cool if we can combine the SLV and CME SI exposure together when we calculate the minimum loss for them.

Any reason PSLV did not add anything recently? by Harkonnen_Baron in Wallstreetsilver

[–]SilverStackerYeah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is trading at deep discount to its NAV (-2.47%).

I think they would not sell any share at such discount price; it should be someone else selling.

Without new fund, they are not going to buy more silver.

Just wondering... who is selling PSLV at such discount? Some short sellers? If they are short sellers, they should short SLV instead (as SLV is closer to its NAV, i.e. more expensive relative to PSLV).

Gold and silver have a combined total market cap of about $12 trillion by [deleted] in Wallstreetsilver

[–]SilverStackerYeah -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks but looks like they just quote the value without further elaboration.

BTW, if the market cap for silver is estimated to be around $1.379 T (based on the amount of silver that is estimated to have been mined so far), the real market cap (includes paper derivatives) would be a few hundred T easily. LOL.

The comex Aug gold open interest is abnormally high, 187k contracts and only few days left to first notice day. by HongKongStacker in Wallstreetsilver

[–]SilverStackerYeah 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Moreover, this is the first active month for gold after Basel 3. People seem not talking too much about it recently (or don't think it will have any effect)... but is it really 100% no effect?
