Nobody says day trader anymore lol. I haven't heard that one in a while. You're trying to sell back to kitco?
Tried, managed to sell 62oz, then the site crashed and the sell is recorded as "unconfirmed". I can't see a way to "confirm" it!
Ok, back down to $20.21. Hopefully tonight is a good sign to come. I'll be at my office Tuesday morning writing a check for more!
That sounds like a bucketshop tactic. Anyway, I wouldn't sweat it. Probably doing you a favor. Even if you can't sell at today's price for a few weeks, you should be able to in not too much time after that. Today's volatility is no surprise with the US holiday on Monday. We might see a shakeout below 20 after US is back online but the world trend can't be stopped. Patience. EDIT: Also keep in mind you have different avenues for selling. Never close yourself off in ways to sell out. That's the beauty of trading physical.
Yes, it's inconceivable that a 6% surge in prices over a couple of hours would generate enough traffic to make a site slow down.
Both Silver and Gold right now are way out of my budget.. I could buy silver but lets say you bought a 100 oz bar for 14.00 a ounce for$1,400 now it's $2,000. Gold is close to $1,500 a ounce which I own nothing of basically.
A silver dime will cost you around $1.50. That's forty or fifty cents more than it would have been at silver's lowest point during the last year. A 1/10oz AGE will run $150 or so. That's thirty or forty dollars more than it would have been at gold's lowest point during the last year. Sure, they're both more expensive. But how would you feel about today's prices if silver goes up to $30/oz again, or gold gets up to $1700/1800? Your budget might start to look a bit better to you with a slight change in your perspective.
