Technically? Sure. Practically? Sounds like a YouTube stunt in the making...
I like this analogy a lot.
I have a pretty clear picture of what news led gold to drop 3% today, and I can imagine how that news could be interpreted to boost silver by 3%....
I would totally try that at home, except (a) the big pulse capacitors are thousands of bucks even at surplus, (b) I don't have any place to put...
