Thank you going to buy some SLV on Monday . Any good miners and precious metals etf you can recommend? I was thinking of buying the inverse like OP and might add some to start a new position . Will sell on any pop or hold it for long term
Rest of cash into SLV tomorrow seems like the plan
We have SILJ, SLV, PSLV for silver and GLD, GLDM, GDX and GDXJ for gold. Of which SILJ and GDXJ are volatile than others best suitable for trading.
AGQ SLV PSLV, but sold some last Friday and will sell a little more Monday. Not expert, just operating on my gut here.
Oh word? HYMC? I was thinking the same. I’m assuming you’re in SLV right now? Also I just got in copper and I was thinking platinum and graphene as well
My dad is Terry Silver, the CEO of SLV, and he said bers are not going to have fun next week.
Nice move! Just keep an eye on the silver-to-gold ratio; it can give you clues about market sentiment. If it shifts, it could impact SLV's performance.
I think that silver short guy gonna wake up to SLV +3-5%
AGQ? Not in it, but hold GDXU and am up 120% At a double in SLV, and want a lot more calls, short, mid and LEAPs...
ZSL is so bad that when silver previously declined by 40% this ended the same period in about -25% in the red. Outright shorting SLV will win out everytime.
1 year from now: "remember how cheap precious metals were earlier this year? SLV only 100, GLD only 500 lmao"
Bro. You just killed my puts on SLV. I’m sure of it.
I think the play here is calls on SLV a month out WHILE running this trade. Might as well be naked in the street. Another couple five percent days for SLV and this is reverse splitting and you are really fucked.
The bubble could pop any day now, but im not taking the chance. I straddled SLV at market close atm 5dte calls and puts, since they were evenly priced. I'll rinse and repeat until it doesnt work anymore. Right now, its working.
When you start to hear "wait till the SLV Failure to Delivers hit..." It's concerning that Phantom Shares and Direct Registration of your silver coins is coming next.
Now will you all stop buying puts on GLD and SLV and join the movement?
I bought puts on SLV to hedge my long call options. I've been in miners for the past couple years so at $100 silver it would be stupid for me not to hedge. I would be surprised if the miners themselves were not doing the same. That said the price action has been so strong i wouldnt be surprised to see $150 in the next 6 months. I wouldnt be raw dogging puts on silver right now no way
I'm doubling down on SLV on Monday. Everything's fucked, Civil War 2.0 has already started.
Fresh 100% tarriff to Canada should push it higher as investors seek safe haven. Rip my puts on SLV as well.

Make the case for BTC over (physical) GLD and SLV.
Sure, but SLV puts are not a safe investment.
Any regard that has lost money on SLV since past three months needs to gamble more to get better experience. Regards from - The Casino manager.
Anyone have a price target when they think SLV will peak? I see non stop posts on here saying it’s going to crash so I’m obviously holding. What’s the FOMO price when you retards start buying in so I know when to sell?
Dude this isn’t a “stock” , SLV is rising with silver and silver is rising because it’s a commodity…supply and demand, you just can’t create more. The price has no need to fall unless you can pull physical silver out of your rear end. This is a global thing. Good luck
The math (gold / silver ratio) says it’s a good time to off load silver. Levels not seen since ‘07, pushing to 2011 levels if anyone wants to gamble holding. In summary: SLV $60p 2027 is probably free money.
I already lost out on about 20k of gains. My GLD and SLV calls were up 30% and I sold. This was 2 weeks ago, before they all shot up. I bought back in yesterday morning.
Also a small but interesting fact this is a good overview https://finance.yahoo.com/news/silvers-price-disconnect-becoming-too-190012870.html? I don't have the bloomberg link about the iShares Silver Trust (SLV) has not removed silver from the market, but rather holds approximately 528 million ounces in physical, ***BUT*** has removed a large portion of the silver from deliverable. What that means from my education on the floor back in the last 80's early 90's, is that, if that silver was to be brought back into deliverable, it would have to be assayed again. This is huge because that means each and every bar ( 1000 oz ) has to be reprocessed again. This is basically a squeeze of some sort. Now all I have to do is find what put's are huge with open interest, most likely those are the ones they bought and when they bring that supply back in, we can watch the freefall happen.
say you invest $100 in each. SLV goes -10% ($90) one day then then +12% ($100.8) the next. AGQ replicates 2x daily movement so it’ll go -20% ($80) one day then +24% ($99.2) the next. congratulations, you have now taken on extra volatility _and_ lost $1.6!
ELI-stupid please. :) Looking at the chart over any length of time compared to SLV for AGQ or GLD for UGL, it has outperformed the metal ETFs.
PLTM and PALL are interchangeable. Also what are the key drivers for them as compared to GLD and SLV beyond "precious metals"? Wanting to learn
They are 2X longs, I bet alot of people have them especially because of how bullish SLV and GLD are. But, its 2x loss, so more volatile. If the SLV impending crash kicks in, you can really bite the bullet.
Just found out about AGQ and UGL. Why not buy that instead of SLV and GLD? Can someone educate me?
SLV GLD PLTM PALL and big tech, IMO. I think I'm also going to start buying up REITs.
I think I’m going to open a $SLV put next week
SLV calls are free money, bers hate money
I bought SLV puts at 3:59pm yesterday
Well it’s rational. I still very bullish on silver and have huge positions. Was planning on getting some month out puts on SLV and SILJ tomorrow, naturally those plans are off. 😃
SLV or actual silver because silver is above 100$ oz already….
All this happens next week, my buddy told me. SLV bers get your puts ready
Here we go ! Weekly tarrifs to pump SLV and GLD has joined third week of 2026.
More bullish news for GLD and SLV
Good luck and god speed. I’m in there with you (via SLV). Fwiw
Ugh, I guess the GLD & SLV top must be in.
Enough with the physical only brigading. While I do fully agree with the premise, and also think it's wise to start with physical precious metals in your possession, you also have to understand people have retirement accounts where the funds are locked in. In such cases paper products are still better than nothing and segregated gold/silver storage accounts are high cost but still "trust me bro" IOUs at the other end of the spectrum from SLV. IMHO, might as well go for a Goldilocks in between and again in my non professional opinion, those are funds like PSLV.
Surely SLV can’t just keep doing this, right? ….right?
Most definitely. Sprott has a minimal chance of shenanigans, which is why I recommend them, but the risk is not 0. I fear that if there's a force majeure at the exchanges (COMEX/LBMA) where they can't deliver silver in March, there is a possibility that it dominos into SLV and the price could be impacted by that event. Meanwhile PSLV might suffer from an initial panic sell off, but it should recover as I do recognize they have a 1:1 holding. Lastly in such a scenario, if it comes to pass because the establishment will do everything to make sure it never happens, if there is a mad dash for physical supply in ones hands, there could be a scenario where whales/producers cause a significant premium on the share price as they hunt for sellers to accumulate enough to take delivery from the fund.
yes but GLD is very volatile right now, full porting it might be kinda regarded, you are asking to get rug pulled at some point, same thing for SLV not that it's a bad asset to buy, but I remember October GLD price made the news everywhere, "people lining up at stores / Costco to buy gold, omg gold" I immediately exit out all gold eow, guess what happened literally Monday, worst single day since 2020 it's still up 10% from October highs, not that it's a bad asset to hold long term, I am also bullish on it
Huh, this is the real talk, I got Feb20 puts on SLV but thinking of selling them on Monday to re-enter with this exact idea. Can’t just be burning money like that ☹️
SLV's chart is a work of art.
ETFs. I’m 66/33 GLD/SLV. Until 🤡 prez is ousted. 💰
gonna do the silver shuffle its been doing all week -> down 0.5% at open, spends the rest of the day only going up its actually crazy watching the SLV chart and just seeing nonstop green candles all day and AH too
Don’t worry bud. Nat Sec chief just called me and told me it’s imperative that I go all in on SLV calls.
Yes, silver is on stage 3 of its parabolic legs, but no sign of topping out just yet. SLV will get that extra 8 a share, and my baby AG will gain even more than SLV as it has been the whole time cause it’s a way better choice in silver exposure imo
Do you think SLV will hit $100+ soon?
Nice call on SLV! Just a heads up, watch for any shifts in the dollar's strength—could impact silver prices. I've been tracking it here if you want to delve deeper: https://aimytrade.io/ticker/SLV?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=comment&utm_campaign=smallstreetbets.
I made the mistake of buying them a couple days ago when the price was at 500 and 515 strike price. I almost bought SLV at 85 strike price instead 😮💨
PHYS and PSLV are reported in their perspectus to be completely unencumbered. Not true for SLV or GLD. This is important for silver because COMEX has been proven to not be above playing silly bugger when it comes to settling silver derivatives. PHYS is actually a little cheaper than GLD.
Apld, SLV buy if the market down💪🏽
Am I crazy or does the SLV chart look kinda bullish?
Think there's still potential for SLV this year ?
I use COPX but it’s not exactly like SLV
lol imagine holding SLV since 1980 peak
Personally I trust Sprott funds much more so than BlackRock. This is just my unprofessional (not advice) opinion, but I'd sooner rely on PSLV than SLV any day of the week. That said, another angle to consider, if the silver is supposed to be a hedge, yes Gold and Silver ETFs do provide some safe haven to your accounts but the real hedge (read; insurance policy) is physical gold and silver. Even with Sprott, you still have counter party risk that they have the silver, you have counterparty risk with the institution that is holding your shares and then you have extremely unlikely but technically possible scenarios like cyber attacks, solar flares, or governments that decide you're a public enemy and freeze your bank account (Ehem...Canada). I understand not everyone is looking for that deep of a hedge but just thought I'd mention it for consideration. You'd still DCA into digital products but the initial buys would be physical until you've met your comfort level.
Not advice at all in any capacity, financial or otherwise. Could sell at a loss on Monday morning and just buy a put that’s two years out with a strike price of like 80. Low risk and high reward. One of those puts is probably very cheap. I have some on silver that are like 5 bucks. Basically been buying calls on SLV and rolling a portion of the profit into a tiny put at a slightly higher strike price with each leg up. If gold had a 20-30 percent correction in a single day, a few of these puts could pay you thousands. If it keeps ripping up, (which seems likely given the current geopolitical climate and monetary policy), you can just keep buying out of the money calls and buying small puts With each leg up. Silver is also probably a way better short tbh. Up like 240 percent in 9 months. Nobody knows when a correction is coming for silver but it’s more likely to be violent and fast in a way that benefits an options trader. It’s certainly booming right now in a way that’s unprecedented, but it’s essentially a gauge of uncertainty and a flight to safety. There’s possibility for a near term correction for sure, but I’d say that with trump in office, the next few years look like it’ll be a steady climb up at minimum for precious metals and other safe havens. Silver might implode due to demand destruction and comex interference etc. My point in saying all of this is that there is probably a better asymmetric risk reward profile in extremely out of the money silver puts on a 1 or two year time horizon.
had a ton of 92.5 SLV calls but expiry today If I bought the expiry next week, I’d be up 5x but I thought today was the blow off top. I closed for 0% gain Instead, another slow melt up Sometimes it’s worth to either buy lower strikes or better expiry times with more premium vs extra contracts Truly a waste of a day in retrospect
No one enjoys being wrong especially with money, my buddy has been trying to short SLV and other stocks for months now, hes lost so much and won't stop. Pride and hurt ego will kill you in this game
Yea I’ll just short SLV with puts the old fashioned way
#The SLV drop will be Biblical
I quadrupled my loss on SLV today the calls I sold yesterday closed 4x 😂
PSLV is better, paper SLV about to be short squeezed
I thought the head lines were exaggerating about the decline of the dollar. I then looked at SLV and GLD. What that tells me is ...... fuck. 2 meals a day are going to be 1 meal every other day.
This has GOT to be the top on SLV *dumps more cash into brokerage*
I’ve been seeing SLV regards for months. If at any point I was actually smart enough to have picked the right asset going up that fast, with the absolute stupidity of the OTM short duration calls I buy, it wouldn’t have taken any more than a month to never trade again. Show yourselves SLV billionaires. I know you’re out there.
I have been buying off and on since maybe 2006. Bought some late in 2008 but not enough. Was bearish too early in 2011. But I had an out at the top of SLV (but sold way too soon). Bought a bit more a couple of years ago… finally bought a bit more a few months ago when silver corrected down to $46. Fumbled the bag on most of my SLV options plays this time. I have a call option on SLV. I am watching the market. Might buy some more coins.
I search SLV and GLD, and now I’m getting ads for Shipping Container home living. What’s that supposed to mean?
If a lot of foreign institutions have been dumping treasuries and buying GLD and SLV it could be awhile….. I truly have no idea but it’s been a steady slow creep up which seems to signal more long term holders have bought in
Yeah you're right I just meant like the world isn't ending and it's not Armageddon I wan't trying to be nonchalant but I shoulda stated more how fucked up that would be. You answered my question but let me propose one for you to think about: Who's the biggest holder of Gold and silver? (U.S.A, and U.S listed ETF and American company Black rock sponsored $SLV)
$GLD and $SLV calls literally printing free money at this point
Is there at SLV type for copper?
I hold plenty of SLV and I'm with you on this wish. I'll fucking load up. Kicking myself for not buying more GLD, PLTM, SLV. USD = 💩
almost 5 mil shares of SLV after hours plus tons of miners and leveraged etfs yeah this is going to 100 next week these junior miner gains are insane look at USAS up 1000 percent in a year dollar will continue its descent into hell and the sell america trade continues
Sick. How’d you do it? SLV GLD calls? YOLO play?
Look everyone around here thinks I’m the biggest silver ber there is. And I’ll admit, it’s fun to trigger the hodl crowd, no matter what the meme-du-jour is. None of them know I have been stacking for most of my adult life. I don’t have anything against the commodity or folks looking for a diversification from the dollar or equities. It’s the absolute froth right now, coupled with the vitriol and defensiveness of that crowd that rings my alarm bells. I had a short position in SLV when it hit $70, and rode it on the short retrace back to $64 in December. But otherwise, I’m plenty content watching from the sidelines and counting my eagles. Finally, and most important to me, is the reality of what sticky $100/oz silver means for the dollar and the economy. Obviously, it’s not the tail wagging the dog- silver has seen the run it has so far due to receding faith in the USD and global economy writ large (yes industrial use is a component, but not the driver). So, when I see pimplefaced zoomers popping in here, in between fits of gooning and whatnot, confidently calling for a $1000/oz pt, all I can see is pure naivete. But, that’s just like my opinion, man.
SLV 100 calls looking like they will hit next week
Most preppers buy lead and canned tuna. This absolute legend buys 2027 $40 SLV calls. If the world ends, at least your broker’s ghost will owe you a fortune. 🫡🥈"
