"Silver Surge"

Jan. 21 2012

While golds reverse head and shoulder pattern of last week morphed into
an uptrend channel, silver remained in that nice reverse head and shoulders
pattern until Friday when it broke out higher as the downtrend line was
approaching that level.
It was obviously a powerful pattern, as they usually are, as silver rose
4.72% Friday alone and for the week was up a sweet 7.68%.
I mentioned last week that silver was well below it’s 200 day moving
average while gold remained above it and the implications I deemed from this
were that perhaps silver would lead gold on this next up-move as it has some
catching up to do.
So far, so good and the 100 day average is the next stop around the $33
level. Then $34 where resistance lies on the chart then the $36 area to the 200
day average.
I did not take a trading position in silver Friday as I was more focused on
booking some great profits from the week as the markets were very kind to us
in regards to our swing trading portfolio. Perhaps next week I will get that
chance.
In fact our swing trading portfolio was up right about 70% this past week
after booking profits which is our best week this year and actually for several
months as the markets haven’t been great for trading.
The SLV ETF volume was heavy on the breakout Friday which is exactly
what we needed to see and now we need a follow though day on Monday with
good volume. This move looks like it is for real.
The reasons why are both technical and fundamental.
Eric Sprott just announced an offering for his silver trust to the tune of
$300 million US dollars. This will equate to roughly 10 million ounces of
physical silver having to be found and delivered. This news alone should propel
silver higher. The fact that a bullish chart pattern was formed and then
resolved properly, higher, is even better.
Normally this would be stellar news that would have me in a trading
position in silver but with the bankruptcy of Kodak (it’s no Kodak moment) they
disclosed they have about $300 million worth of physical silver.
The timing couldn’t have been better and this silver may well fill Eric’s
pockets without disrupting the market.
