[QUOTE="isaiah58, post: 2066499, member: 29459"]Del Rio. When did anyone say they traded even up or for an immediate profit? By the way, trading in stocks includes paying fees. Whatever your label is for trading silver-for-gold, or visa-versa, is not how this works. It is a very simple and fair process, something I personally have never done but I do fully understand the logic. Real simple: Buy gold and silver while the ratio is around 80-1. When the ratio is at what one considers low (35-1 or better) have a "Trade" point you are looking to hit. My LCS buys most common .999 Ag at spot, sells most common Au around $80 over these days. At $50 an ounce for Ag lets say I am paying two ounces Ag for each ounce of Au I pick up. When the ratio is back to 80-1 I trade my Au at $30 over spot, buy Ag at about 10% over. So, roughly I doubled my silver stack after the cycle is over. Or, I replaced it and kept the additional Au, whichever my plan calls for. Same thing lets say as selling my Ag on my own then buying Au from someone else. I can cut my costs a little this way, but I trust and care about my relationship with my LCS to much, they are safer to deal with.[/QUOTE]
