Gold and silver are in extended downtrends.  Worse for gold it has just broken to new lows on a gap down.  Being long is an invitation to a diagnosis of masochism.  Buying these issues before they form bottoms and show strength is a good way to dispose of capital.

We have been short silver for quite some time and the chart encourages us to add on to our position:

The PnF chart has a startling target for silver.  We don’t know whether we believe it or not, but if realized it would be a spectacular trade.
