The gold spot is climbing up nicely but silver just seems stuck in a rut, do you recon it'll just shot up all of a sudden to catch up to gold gains ?
Silver seems to be stuck

Mate...perhaps the Gold to Silver ratio (GSR) charts could help.
Here's a link...scroll down to the bottom of the page.

From 1975 to 2012, an average 57.4 oz. of silver has bought 1 oz. of gold. Today it takes 64.3 oz. Silver is currently undervalued in my view. Platinum is also looking attractive, but it's still in my "hold" range.
Platinum
Hoard when 0.7 - 0.8 oz. gold buys 1 oz. platinum
Accumulate when 0.8 - 0.9 oz. gold buys 1 oz. platinum
Hold when 0.9 - 1.4 oz. gold buys 1 oz. platinum
Swap when 1.5 - 1.75 oz. gold buys 1 oz. platinum
Liquidate when 1.75+ oz. gold buys 1 oz. platinum
Silver
Hoard when 63+ oz. silver buys 1 oz. gold
Accumulate when 57 - 62 oz. silver buys 1 oz. gold
Hold when 34 - 56 oz. silver buys 1 oz. gold
Swap when 20 - 33 oz. silver buys 1 oz. gold
Liquidate when 19 or less oz. silver buys 1 oz. gold
Platinum
Hoard when 0.7 - 0.8 oz. gold buys 1 oz. platinum
Accumulate when 0.8 - 0.9 oz. gold buys 1 oz. platinum
Hold when 0.9 - 1.4 oz. gold buys 1 oz. platinum
Swap when 1.5 - 1.75 oz. gold buys 1 oz. platinum
Liquidate when 1.75+ oz. gold buys 1 oz. platinum
Silver
Hoard when 63+ oz. silver buys 1 oz. gold
Accumulate when 57 - 62 oz. silver buys 1 oz. gold
Hold when 34 - 56 oz. silver buys 1 oz. gold
Swap when 20 - 33 oz. silver buys 1 oz. gold
Liquidate when 19 or less oz. silver buys 1 oz. gold

Haha. It is a bit crazy without the background context. I came up with these ratios based on 30+ years of historical prices. I wrote an article for Seeking Alpha about it about 1.5 years ago. It's certainly not definitive, but I think looking at the ratios and how they compare to long term trends is a helpful way to see what is undervalued. If neither silver or platinum are showing buy signals, go with gold.

You would buy gold any time the silver or platinum ratio is in the hold, swap, liquidate range. I don't remember why I used those terms, but swap is basically a 'sell' rating and liquidate is a 'strong sell'. When you're selling silver and platinum, you're either buying gold, or if the circumstances call for it, you're raising cash to invest elsewhere or hold onto until the market gives a clear buy signal.

What would be the equivalent guidelines for buying, holding and selling gold?

I did my best!ego2spare said:
11 kilo shinies added at the last $19.5 occasion, but again lower dealer/fellow stacker prices than before so my cheapest silver so far.
So I'm again in fiat stacking mode, until the temp buyers do their next sell off.
And then I will again dump the chunk fiatcrap for more silver!
Rinse and repeat!

I personally was planning on buying large today but i got screwed over the 4%+increase of silver and decided to wait on it
