Downslide envoke your buying?

in Precious Metals
Its been another week, and the drop in the silver price 'chart' shows more than a temporary dip and trend into a bit of a downslide ($35 to $32.50 ish). I'm hoping, and not expecting it, to be that deep overall.

Increased buy justification for me, as I'd rather buy at $32.50, than $35+.

You?

    Buying opportunity. went back in this morning on the paper side with USLV. Turned profits from last USLV flip into a green box. would be nice to be able to do it again. I feel confident I will, just a question of how long it will take.

    These current prices feel about "right" to me (I'm in a holding mode), as I'd buy more silver below $27 and sell some above $38.

    With gold, I'm a buyer below $1550 and a seller above $1900, and with platinum it's $1450 and $1800.

    These trades would be around core positions ("stacks") I'm currently happy with,
    might be different if I was still in accumulation mode (that was mostly 1998-2001 when stocks were screaming higher and I was trying to diversify)

    new coin money is going into numismatic coins (and, based on many "friday" posts here, much of the bullion money is going into "collectible" bars and rounds with a premium attached

    down can be good, if you let it. You don't have to catch the tops and the bottoms, you just have to sell at a higher price than you bought. The further off you are from catching the tops and the bottoms the less the profit and the longer it may take to acquire it. With this approach, timing is not as important as patience. Volatility can be your friend, especially in a long term bull trend. This approach works as long as the bull trend continues and as long as one does not panic.

    As long as the buyers continue to outnumber the sellers, lower is just a temporary condition.

    It would behoove everyone to go back read the threads about silver from a month ago. What was the general feeling or sentiment that you picked up in those threads?

    My sentiment remains unchanged - silver is in a long term bull trend. Stack for the long haul, trade paper on the volatility in the short term. When the long term trend changes my sentiment will follow. For the long term trend to change, the fundamentals must change. Fundamentals, not the current spot price, determine my sentiment. Current spot price is used to determine if and what action to take in order to make short term paper profits. A long term bull trend increases your chances of profiting with paper if you are patient. This approach can work with any investment that shows itself to be in an upward long term trend.

    Not surprising at all if you're been in the silver market for more than a few years. My target is around $29.

    The more profits I turn with my method the more profit cushion I have protecting me when the trend eventually turns.

    And as most of us have seen before, when it turns, it turns fast and sharp. As soon as we break below $30 I'll be keeping a very close eye on the charts.

    These moves between $5 silver and $200 silver <<<insert your own numbers here>>> are just "a bump in the road".
