The error I feel presented time and again in a lot of the opinion here is that gold and silver trade in some sort of vacuum.
I'm also trying to work out (being a little slow) if the original post on 3 days of candle analysis being the basis of where silver heads next week was tongue in cheek. If it wasn't it sure should have been. If text book candle patterns worked, there would be a nice little app or programme for it and every amateur trader and his silver maple would be a millionaire.
I know it's a bit of a deviation, but these days you trade the central banks in the markets. Dollar has been down, and surprise surprise it floats all boats. Nothing new.
I'm waiting for lower of which I believe will be the final leg down, and missed the $26 and change which would still have been a nice price for a few bullion coins and been tempted. We've probably got another 10% or so to go so it's not the end of the world for anyone not wanting to risk it or has to have now I guess.
