Wallstreet shorts reditt group are making a lot of traders cry this week!! 

There is a finance war on today. Might not last long, maybe it will stop the control and we will hit £100 an ounce.

Folks, quick question.. If a punter wanted to trade on the price of Silver or Gold, where would he look?

I use a spread betting account with IG trading there are many other similar platforms. Most offer a demo feature so you can get a feel for the platform and how it works first (and also practice if you're starting out) 

Lcg are another I looked at and there were a few more I came across

Stupid question time... if Silver shoots up in price, say to £50oz.. Who is gonna buy your stack at that price?

when 2011 highs hit, there were no shortage of buyers at all. as the train was seen to be leaving the station and it was jump on board because the next stations are £75oz and then £100oz

Dealers will always just work on margin.  for the sake of easy maths buy at 95% sells at 5% over spot.  10% spread is their profit

doesnt matter if its £5oz or £50oz

That's good if you started stacking then.... Its like all markets when you start it may not be at the absolute bottom or top.. its how you position and trade within that which gives you a better average. I wish I could have bought at 16/17 per oz... for me we are seeing a range and I will trade between that with a  view that I improve my holdings and average.. if possible :-).. With the goal that we will see minimum $50 dollars by 2022.. fingers crossed.

ive just bought a 5 oz sunshine minting bar from a good seller for £105 inc delivery thats £21 per oz  when spot was £19  or so , i think it was £135 or best offer plus postage . ....i really cant stress this enough and im gunna assume its cos of rejection .but offer what youre prepared to pay  as low as you can .my stack has always been around £12-£20 per oz , i thinkthe one i paid over the odds for was the 5oz pamp  , i did try and get it for £80 but had to pay £90 or so cos it was pamp

When the price of an asset rises substantially or quickly it gains more attention and draws more people in I guess. That's perhaps as much psychological but why often novice investors end up buying high and selling low or just holding for a long time hoping for it to hit the highs again. 

Perhaps for us stackers and investors it's obvious to buy when it dips but the knee jerk reaction is to wait because it might go down further. The fomo thing too. 

Metal wise I don't really plan on selling the stack in the foreseeable future unless I've another opportunity that requires the cash and I've not got it on hand. 

I have a number in my head that would make a juicy return on my stack for silver but if that time comes and I've no better opportunity for the cash I'd rather stay in silver still unless there was some certainty in the silver price dropping substantially

I'm stacking/accumulating physical metals for the long term. It's not my main investment vehicle but one I enjoy and believe in.

Personally I think being involved in a few different asset classes gives me more stability because if I go all in on one asset I could easily be wrong. Love the shiny stuff
