Yikes! It's up 1.5% already, and the Eastern markets have only been open for a little while. Here's a better link to the info:

Both seem to be up about 1/2% on my screen right now.

A trader friend of mine says he expects Monday to be limit down on stocks.

About 2% a piece positive now. That back into silver will be a nice point if things hold like this tomorrow. My only Hong Kong stock is down 9%. Also, on July 20 or so I hedged my long USA stock positions by writing covered calls at the money for 5%. Of course the market dropped more, so those will likely expire worthless, however I am now unhedged.

To kick me when I am down, the VIX calls I was buying for a August expiry and a $19 strike are now about 6x what I bid at. Seems they will open about 10x that price. In hindsight, should not have been so strict with my limit order.

I'm still holding my SLV position until the next rumor from tamo.  Only down about 20% since the last rumor :)

Yeah, I'm in the same boat. I closed my VIX calls on Thursday! Granted, they were up 100%, but still!

Paper silver is a very volatile game. Gotta be quick on your feet (or fingers as the case may be).

I'm not in anything but Chinese coins, and I'm doing GREAT! :P

Got back into some SLV calls yesterday just before the close.

Such a smart move!  I'm still locked in at when it's about $50 :(

I wouldn't worry too much about it. I would be surprised if silver doesn't break $50 this year.

The margin-hike move has already been played. So when they tried the same thing in gold a week or so ago it did almost nothing.
