I spent .07% of my net worth on SLV puts today may the best man win
About to get banned for a week since SLV didnt make it to 33.20 by today. See you regards in a week.
I have no idea what else I would buy/sell in today, none of my puts are printing. Not sure what the move is next week, my SLV and OXY calls expiring Monday is just slightly too far away to be ITM. Maybe SPY calls or puts a month out?
SLV ... 33.50 today...mark it
SLV silver may never go down again (local top signal)
YEAH buy SLV, it's totally not a proxy buy for GLD by retards too poor to buy into the main bubble!
The gambler in me would feel like a missed opportunity. In hindsight the drop was too fast but the reasoning for it was sound. Market is a meme now. It can't react and recover before the economy is actually affected, so the near future is not good in my view But I put my money in GLD, SLV and then VYMI and VXUS and finally VOO for the final 5% of the recovery of the S&P. I'm sitting at around 14% gain for the year right now so much better if I sat and did nothing. I still don't understand the recovery, but the drop was too far, too fast. It should be down and slowly trending down further as we get more and more unhinged. But instead it's back where it was. It's weird to me to think we have the same economic outlook now than before liberation day. So I'll stay 10% in VOO and wait and see and I might drop it again. US market will have to react eventually as the economy suffers.
SLV gapped up over the 2024 high. Clear air to ATH in 2011 coming.
GDXJ is more about gold miners, if I understand it correctly. Why not SLV calls instead?
still holding 25 contracts. I have made 7k this week off SLV. pretty good if you ask me. also in the first pic, my starting position was 4k turned to 7k. pretty good if you ask me
Bought a single share of SLV in 2022 for 17.33. Sold it last week for 29.98. Absolutely ripping these returns.
My 10K in SLV calls may be worth a gains post tomorrow, literally screamed the silver trade from the rooftops before the 5% breakout the other day, we’re heading to 50 EOY.
I'm so glad I have like 13k in SLV. Keeps my boomer account nice and safe
I had the same issue. I bought ITM SLV Puts this morning on Robinhood, got a trade confirmation that I got the order filled, and then by the end of the day my Puts were gone and I got a refund for my purchase. I didn't get any notifications that my trade was cancelled nor that my account is being reviewed.
Silver always peaks above golds high every single major metal run. Gold has probably not even peaked, there’s no way to tell the future but that’s about as close of a crystal ball as you’re gonna get. SLV leaps are literally free money
The plan - buy whichever is down the most between SPY, GOOG, and SLV
Bruh you were crying about not getting SLV calls at open haha
I fuckin knew SLV wouldn't hold those gains. Surprised at gold though. Bullish for equities
Given SLV's behavior and history, I'd say is one of crazier moves today 🚀
I'm not going to lie, I sold all of my GLD today. Having invested through the first gold bubble, I rode this one until I started seeing reguards using copper as a proxy play, and now that SLV broke out, I'm getting out while the getting is good. It was free money for a good while, but fool me twice.... can't be fooled again. I'm long FXB, FXE, and FXY (brit monie, europoor money, and some asian money probs rice) as my play against the dollar. I think that will capture the devaluation of the dollar against other major currencies just fine, and far safer than yellow rock.
Lol nice. So you'd fade this rally then? I noticed open interest on ITM SLV calls was rapidly expanding last week.
Yeah and I'm still down 27% on it from the last gold bubble when people were buying SLV as a proxy buy. It was one of the first things I ever FOMO'd on when I started investing, I keep the few shares of it still in my roth to remind me lol.
Its such a trash metal, historically. Calls feel like a no brainer here, but its really hard to trust any momentum in SLV
sell your SLV though, I want it
hopefully you got in $SLV check my recent post
SLV has a +5% move a few times a year. You happen to be holding calls for one of them. Might be best to take the win.
Fuck you SLV. Give me 1 red candle you piece of shit
Sold my SLV 31 calls for a 5 bagger
Who listened to me and bought SLV calls at open, this is the major breakout. If you missed GLD on its April run, this is your second chance.

Got my calls on GLD, SLV, and BERK.B, paired that with some QQQ and META calls on the dip for funsies
If I did a LEAPS call on SLV, what move would you say? How does January 16th, 2026 $30 SLV call sound?
GLD and SLV calls, time to get DEFENSIVE!
I have roughly 18% cash to deploy but after today, I'm clueless. Maaaybe SLV calls?
I'm thinking 25% in SLV leaps, 25% in GLD leaps, and the rest for shorter term plays.
I have SLV, sooo 
KSS. I’m a barbell right now a lot of KSS and SLV and a small amount of PUTs against the market
silver (SLV) still hasn't recovered from when it was used as a GLD proxy in the last gold bubble. GLD itself took 8 years to recover from that.
Ideas Calls: ETHA, IBIT, GLD, SLV
SLV playing catch up to GLD. GET IN NOW SHITSLUGS.
If you have the capital for it then its pretty lucrative for the risk, I prefer to be able to average down but I can't really do that too well on GLD so I wheel SLV instead, I imagine the returns are fairly similar
SLV kinda sorta better than GLD when you really think about it 
Go ahead. I plan to become a little more vocal/present. Once KSS plays out I’ll do a post on how I’ll roll. Right now my favorite rolls are SD and SLV but who knows once an event occurs. Depending on how much I make I even think I may buy 30yr treasuries at 5%. Doing just a longer term spread play. Those treasuries will raise in value if/when the fed drops rates. Last year I ran the math and it came out to double digit annual returns if rates dropped from 4.5 to 3 in a few years.
I’m cash poorer than normal, if I wasn’t that’s a candidate where I’d put a small amount on long calls just incase a hit. My investment strategy is generally bulk in deep value plays that have generally good dividends(think MPC, ET, MPLX, EPD since COVID) with about 20%-30% of portfolio doing asymmetric bets. This is one of the most asymmetric I’ve seen. Others are usually puts against the market or AAPL or STLA or similar and calls on GLD or SLV or similar.
I’m all in on KSS currently. But also trade AAPL, GLD SLV and some others a decent amount
Calls on GLD and SLV
Contrary. Yields will go up and bond prices go down. I would be buying some more GKD SLV ETFS. Maybe even AGQ short term
Look at SLV all time chart for courage. It's never even gotten close to it's peak bubble high ever again
I moved to GLD, SLV, ,VXUS and VYMI. I will move back in when sanity returns. The US Stock market can't react and then recover to economic issues that haven't actually happened yet. It's crazy! The market is 100% a meme stock. Now coinbase is in the S&P500 and of course TSLA is. Not for me.
Im out of the US market for now. Cash, GLD, SLV, VXUS and VYMI. Looking at more foreign ETFs and will look at some stocks also. When I have to buy Coinbase and Tesla in the S&p 500, im outa that. I dont see the coming year friendly to small caps and even mid caps, so jot that interested in anything. So much uncertainty, I'll look for gains elsewhere.
I swapped my GLD at ~$286 into SLV. I want the inflation hedge but also think silver has gotten left behind and metrics are way out of whack currently
Also really like SLV. It’s my second largest long currently. GLD and SLV I always invest with via options. When they move the movements really count
Anyone Wheeling IWM ? I wheel commodities ETF (USO,GLD,SLV) to a certain success about 20% a year ( I know is not as good as just parking it in nvida but I need the money every month to cover non-existential expenses and I already have other fund on longer term investments already) How different is it from wheeling USO for example?
Gld has a chance if time right. SLV is monstrously manipulated and tamped once heads to the upside.. Though I learned this too late. All the best on your revenge, haha..
Daaamn son.. Appreciate you sharing.. I'm in the same boat with SLV. One of worst trades have ever taken
Put 50% in a high yield savings accounts. Doctor of Credit has a list of FDIC insured accounts. Pick 3 banks and equal split. Put 10% in Gold and Silver ETF's and Gold and Silver Miners with 2.5% each in (SLV, SIL, GLD, GDX) 30% in S&P 500 Index Fund with low expense ratio like IVV or VOO 5% in high dividend yield ETF's KBWY or XSHD with 2.5% in each 5% in MAG7 via an ETF like MGK
Does anyone remember the gold and silver crash back in 2010 or 2011? I forget exactly when but I had just started investing. I still have a few shares of that SLV ETF, and I'm still down on them lol. I keep them just to remind me of the first commodity bubble I FOMOd into at the very top lol.
lol, sorry bro. I'm sitting in SLV and my god does every day suck
I found investopedia to be very good for explaining various kinds of combinations and the Greeks. Reddit has some good threads of people’s actual experiences sometimes if you keep an eye out. Really though, if you haven’t already, get a paper trading account on a platform, set up and customize your trading tools, and try some strategies. Try wheeling or iron condors with wmt and vz. DCA into 120 day itm calls with standing limit orders to buy the dips on GLD and SLV, then generate income by converting them into diagonal calendar spreads and learn to manage your short legs by rolling them in/out up/down based on market conditions. Short TSLA with some atm bear call spreads. Buy some shares and learn to hedge your equity position by balancing the downside delta with puts. When you have specific questions based on your experience actually managing different kinds of options positions, go check Google or found a YouTube video.
Not the best, But holding SLV Calls, looking to benefit from VIX increasing, (presuming on the India-Pakistan news), and selling at open. That "positive" tired news spike, just sent them and GLD tanking.
Glad for you if it helps your positions. Fcking murdered my GLD and SLV tho! 
jfc SLV is such a piece of shit. How could anyone recommend this absolute garbage??
Fucking SLV I kept on loosing money.
Tired of losing $ on SLV, think will hop over to GOOGL 
Brother I made 75% on SLV calls today
Fucking silver don't move at all. I have no fucking idea, other than kept losing money in those SLV calls.
I'm pretty negative the market so been primarily cash with some call and puts to hedge major swings. I am a value investor and think there is way too much risk not being accounted for in everyone's numbers. leading into this April I was long gold with calls, short the overall market with a few key positions and a general market position, and bulk cash. I cashed out again with the crazy ride in mid-April. I'm personally invested with calls on SLV(I parlayed part of my GLD profits into it), LONG KSS(its a whole story but you can see why if you click on my name and see my posts lol), and just went short again last Friday against AAPL and SPY(\~12% of portfolio). IF I wasn't in KSS I would be \~70% to 80% cash with the long SLV and shorts listed.
I think you are right with hedging. I also hedged alot against the market and was mainly cash, GLD options, and PUTs leading into April. I cashed out with a pretty awesome return and just entered puts again w/ \~12% of my current portfolio. I have been long GLD but out in the $280s. I took my profits bc I can't forecast what will happen but parlayed a portion into SLV since it's so out of balance. I am too nervous to be long on much right now and find it safer to be in cash with options giving you potential upsides if things take off again all a sudden. With that said, I am super bullish KSS. I love real estate and a deep value investor. You can look at all the reasons why on the r/KSSBulls subreddit if you even care(for me its a real estate play). It's the only thing I've seen that has gotten me excited on the buy side in a while.
SLV is actually playing nice today. Up 84% on weekly $29 calls. 
EVGO AUG 3c is a 5 bagger so far for me RIG AUG 3c will do the same Also buy SLV for underdog to gold in preparation for EV boom coming
SLV lookin spicy 
GLD and SLV gonna face rip this week. 
My positions aren’t static and held in several different brokerages. The largest is the federal TSP I fund, which mirrors the MSCI ACWI IMI ex USA ex China ex Hong Kong Index. My main brokerage account is in Vanguard Developed Markets Index (VTMGX) and Vanguard Total International Bond (BNDX). Individual holdings are limited to BRK.B, GLD, SLV, and some AAPL that I’d owe huge cap gains on if I sold.
Personally I’m pretty negative whole market. I converted all my GLD into SLV a bit ago(when GLD was in the $280s. Rose too much too fast so was worried and think silver should catch up). I just started a position against the market Thursday and Friday. I only have about 12% of portfolio in puts against. Specifically 6months out against SPY and AAPL. I started getting really bullish on Kohls(KSS) of all companies. Their CRE is worth multiples of their current stock price. This is now my largest personal position ever percentage wise in a stock. My personal portfolio outside of the market is mainly real estate and some businesses I own and so I look at KSS right now as buying high value CRE for 10 or so cents on the dollar.
I chose a great week to be bullish. But I was on GLD and SLV calls. FML

You’d be better off with puts tbh Silver is the “poor man’s gold”, it can appreciate even more than gold during big gold bull runs (2003-2008). It’s been consistently lagging gold since at least 2012 though (right after silver spiked to 50). Either gold is towards the end of its bull run, or the traditional relationship between the two metals is changing (or both) https://goldprice.org/gold-silver-ratio.html Another thing: silver is both a precious metal and industrial metal - it kind of has a hybrid character, like platinum. A lot of it is produced as byproduct of copper (copper demand is tightly connected to economic cycles) and also used up in industrial uses every year. But during an economic downturn, industrial silver demand can collapse much faster than copper production drops, so it is prone to spike down in price. So, how do you think the economy is doing? ☄️ If that’s not enough, Robert Prechter (famously a goldbug) thinks silver is just about to drop I’d seriously consider a SLV 28/26 put vertical spread dated about two months out, the 28 strike will probably end up ITM before then and this will make some money. Play around with strikes and expirations but the low strike should be around the Jan low, and the high strike “halfway” to from here to there
PSLV to the moon. Beware of SLV. [silverwars.org](http://silverwars.org) for why Silver is the mother of all critical metal.
This is what works for me: * Brokerage A+B: $90,000 - long stock only (SPY, TSLA, GLD, SLV, etc) or settlement earning 4% and change if there are no setups. This is my vault, "go bag", dry powder, etc. I generally day trade this but sometimes hold for a few days. * Brokerage C: $2,000-$10,000 - 0-1DTE queen, usually full port directional trades, 99.9% intraday unless I fuck up and baghold on a hail mary. SPY, TSLA, whatever's hot. I blow my account every 6-18 months, but generally earn about $300-1000/day. Often with intraday drawdowns of 1-2x that because of less than optimal positioning. I intentionally pull out gains into A+B to lock in that sweet, sweet passive income and limit exposure to blow ups. * Paycheck: A+B. Only C if need to seed again
