I do wonder, how is the system deciding which orders are to be cancelled? Is it based on whoever ordered first? or just chance? My payment also says pending but the money is not available in my account. It shows 9.03 am as time of payment and I received my order confirmation at 9:04 from the mint. I really don’t think I could’ve been faster, so if my order is cancelled then it’s likely that anyone’s is at risk.

I'd guess first come first served

The trouble is with their system rejecting cards multiple times its more like first come and lucky enough to actually get served

I think I first got declined at 9:02 and it took till 9:10 to get my order done

Thanks I'm going to complain to the RM

Maybe its fine and dealers can do whatever they want with an allocation but clearly this doesn't benefit their customers in any way, quite the opposite

Did any dealers get given these to sell? 

And instead of selling them at recommended price they're selling them at a massive premium?

I didnt understand 😅 i need a reassurance please. Is there a possibility to be canceled or not?  

Sorry their post just reminded me of the Queen song One Vision 

If one card was used to purchase two of the same coin it's entirely possible one of the orders will be cancelled, If it were me I'd assume it would be to avoid disappointment

Hopefully for your sake they gloss over it and you get the coin

So I’m going to be honest. I only really queued to buy one of these because I missed out on the Una last year. I think it’s a wonderful coin and I’m very happy to add to the collection (if I’ve actually got one), but I don’t quite get the hype. Why is everyone getting ‘rather excited’ about this coin in particular?

(Feel free to roll your eyes, send polite abuse and general hate towards me, the guy who clearly isn’t educated)

Timeless design, low mintage, I'm not a collector but this should end up being a really beautiful series as a whole

Everyone wants one, money to be made

I think they deserve a premium on the secondary market, not quite the premium they achieve but if people are willing to pay then what does my opinion matter

Well, that's that then, ending several months of speculation and discussion. Anything else happening now?

Just saying guys it did say just one coin. 

it said one of each product I think?

All sold out now 

Just now, Simmoleon said:

So could you buy one of each size or one from the range?

each size but the 2oz gold sold out within 10 seconds of it being in my basket and I was pretty much in at 9am

I see you guys are also having trouble paying, as said took 10 minutes and multiple tries for me

It kept giving me an error for my card  so I only got 2oz silver after 10 minutes of issues 

Everyone here now should get a 2oz silver at least you would think

Then we can all enjoy the lottery of royal mints quality control 😎

2 ounce silver - 3,500 mintage

2 ounce gold 325

thats much better than I hoped

Una was 3000 and 225 right/

So, how do I go about purchasing a little nugget of uranium. Just as an investment you understand.

if you don't hold it you don't own in 💯

Not really what we want to hear, but sitting it out now and buying at the bottom seems a logical step.
Assuming this is accurate - never a fan of just going on technical analysis, but his yield statement makes sense. 

This is the basic chart I like

You could make a case for something like this currently, downward channel it needs to break out of

gold is following US long bonds down as yields go up

Might be the positive vaccine study from Israel

Might be some news in the US I haven't seen

What risk do they need to cover with a short?
 

I would guess it's an accounting, balancing the books issue

In April it says SLV assets under management were 5b and it's now 17b

What difference does that 12b make? does your whole portfolio balance different, can you open new positions or have access to more capital/different types of credit? no idea, but you wouldn't want to get caught playing with that 12b if silver tanks and be stuck living a 17b lifestyle with only 5b

Again I'm guessing but it's probably something to do with this

Then he says that silver ETF's buy silver and then go short on the COMEX to hedge their position. This is gibberish. If they sell short the total value of their investment cannot go up (or down). If the silver goes up in price, the physical they hold goes up in value but they lose on the short. If silver goes down, the physical goes down in value but the short goes up. 

They're hedging reducing risk

No idea what the ratio would be but it definitely wouldn't be 1:1 as standard

Dont give up on Silver, its coming.

I would argue the link is times of economic/monetary trouble

You could post a chart of unemployment with QE and they would correlate

Or you could post a chart with unemployment and silver and say wow people really like to buy silver when they lose their jobs

Is silver shorted because it's an easy way to make money?

Just how profitable has shorting silver been? is there any way to know

If you could control a market and print money from it without anyone really objecting (industrial use certainly don't mind low prices) - I can understand why that would happen

Or is there actually a grander conspiracy behind it 

Is it that if gold and silver were allowed to attempt to find fair value they would be like a black hole for currency and inflate exponentially, Is that what we're seeing in crypto now

Aside from paper silver, for the big boys in tech, solar, battery etc?

Maybe but hasn't this been going on way longer than green energy?

Wouldn't people in oil want to drive up the price of green used metals though on the flip side, if that was the game

If the silver market is manipulated, what is the reason for the manipulation?

Beyond the obvious rationale that they think they can make more money short than long

If you dont hold it you dont own it

You don't get ahead by abiding by this cliché type of rhetoric

You need to try and explore every opportunity available to you

 Im learning day trading now.

how are you going about it? times frames? identifying entries etc

What are you trading? equities, commodities, currencies or all? 

I wouldn't be against doing a detailed post with everything I've learned so far

Personally I've found trying to trade takes up a lot of time, is more stressful and not as profitable as just investing  (I've probably been lucky with the investing though)
