I thought I was following in your foot steps-lol. Good, for you. Same nation state? That is funny. Good description.

Yeah I am not wild about the comapny either as long as Kensington is in limbo. But as you say 13 millio oz of silver a year and 100,000 oz of gold. Lots of cash flow and great exploration gpoing on.

I posted this on the wt thread to lazy to retype it-lol.

I bought a boat load of CDE 2009 and 2010 wts out of the money (5's and 7.50's) yesterday and today.

The world seems tense-lol. Oil $84 a barrel. Dollar in freefall and the middle east a tinder box.

About those Silver future call options.

I trade on www.xpresstrade. Not sure about other platforms but when I want to chart the price, volume, and open history on the 20 dollars calls March 2008 Comex silver futures contracts I type in: CSIH082000.

C = call

SI = Silver

H = March

08 = 2008

20000 = 20 dollars

While xpresstrade lets me see what the latest bid and ask is the options of Comex silver, it is traded in the pit, by humans, until 1:30 east coast time. So the bid/ask might be out of date when I'm looking at it.

So to place a trade I call xpresstrade customer service, wait on the phone while they call down to the trading floor, get the current bid/ask, and place my bid.

Xpresstrade customer service is WAY more responsive and helpful than Interactive Brokers, btw.

Costs me 20 dollars round trip.

Someone sent me a pm wanting to know this info, but I no longer have premium, and so can't respond privately, that's why I'm posting this info here.

Btw, on Fri the March Silver futures closed at 14.08. That's about 18 cents higher than where it closed on the Dec.

Muddling thru, guys, muddling thru. . .
