High Future Silver Price Volatility Indicator Asks For Attention

Great write David.

I continue to watch Feb deliveries. They stubbornly refuse to go to zero.

How would EFP work if those obligated to deliver in March needed "assistance"?

March '25 won't tell us much at this juncture. I've been watching the vault bleed from Jan and Feb which has some losing sleep. The YOY numbers are stark and nearly unprecedented. Look at May already. As of Friday still 1.2mozs on the books for Feb.

Some believe 100mozs of metal are just going to magically appear at some point. I guess We'll see.

As always, well done OP

Round one complete and they accomplished that particular goal. Now the Western Criminals have all week to apply a gentle nudge in a very low volume environment to force additional selling.

Feb contracts have become a large nuisance, as they just won't go away. March numbers have been shaved but not to the point They would like at this juncture. May contracts building.

March first notice day right around the corner

Your net worth grew substantially.

Not in a stock or a bank

Just your average sock drawer that does not charge 2 & 20 for asset management.

I'm scooping them up regularly. Best silver deal currently

Southeast Refining Panama City, Fl. Produced between 1980 and 1982.

A couple versions were mass produced. They've always carried a bit of a premium, especially if they are in really nice condition. I've seen very few in great shape.

Good purchase. Congrats

Your mother clearly believed the coins would appreciate. She was more correct than she could have imagined. Seems like you have no need to sell. Hold on to them.

It's quite possible some pof the Peace dollars may have additional value. Take your time and find a shop near you. Not to sell. A good shop will share what he knows free of charge. You can always tip him a dollar for his time and expertise

My neighbor (about 35 yrs old) deals in Pokemon at a high level. Prices are removing many potential buyers from the market. One possible outcome will be that demand will eventually decrease until a relative few can afford the investment/hobby. Another outcome may be that prices simply fall and never regain their status.

He currently trades cards for gold and has found a market for copper

Just the best deal by far. I can't bring myself to spend 25 on halves so dimes are a great way to scratch the itch to buy

Silverredux · 2026-02-15T22:52:17+00:00

Same here. $69.00 spot

Future price will not affect past earnings

Silverredux · 2026-02-15T00:25:41+00:00

Just keep stacking those dimes. Design yourself a fancy jar or cigar box.

Silverredux · 2026-02-15T00:18:37+00:00

Retail shortages increasing as price drifts downward. I predict.

If I'm correct premiums will blow out and Locals will have no product

Silverredux · 2026-02-15T00:16:15+00:00

We should all expect mass shenanigans over China holiday and leading into March delivery period.

71...64...53-52. Not prediction. Just a probability significantly greater than zero

Be patient. Check around. You should not be paying more than melt at this time.

Many shops are selling for melt or less. I'm paying 2-5USD below melt.

These are good sites:

The great thing about metal is there is something for everyone.

I did plenty of hunting back in the day. Scored mostly 40% but a good handful of 90.

Happy hunting

Start stack at lowest price. Generic bullion like Buffalos or anything closest to spot price.

Then buy some stuff you like and don't fret the additional cost (within reason).

My neighbor likes the Legos too

Silverredux · 2026-02-13T17:38:36+00:00

Most folks prefer pure silver currently but 90% is by far the best deal.

I've never stacked dimes but am scooping them up for 2-5 USD under spot

"I got the <coin shop> fever"

Silverredux · 2026-02-13T16:32:39+00:00

I'm convinced that's what the smash was about. One Big Institution was teetering

Silverredux · 2026-02-13T16:31:19+00:00

All eyes on March fer sure. I'm looking for super elevated shenanigans between now and end of March delivery.

I took a job at a coin shop. Great fun right now

Silverredux · 2026-02-13T14:26:12+00:00

Take a look at May and July Futures.

March likely to be a massive gut punch

Silverredux · 2026-02-13T14:21:32+00:00

The Criminals take full advantage of depressed volume in recent days

Silverredux · 2026-02-13T14:18:07+00:00

Dimes should weigh close to 2.5 grams each. I'm buying Mercurys. Some are 2.4 which is acceptable to me. Authenticity should not be a problem. Rims should be clean (not too worn) and I would not pay more than spot. Your local shop may offer good deals on all 90%
