No New Signals for Friday

There are no new signals for Friday. Here is the current portfolio:

Long Copper JJC 44.52 46.46 46.92 4.4% 7

Note the good gains in copper and silver.

The new position in silver futures was (unfortunately) stopped out very quickly.

CLOSED OUT SYMBOL ENTRY OUT PROFIT DAYS
Long Silver SIU10 19.432 19.475 $215 7

If you didn't get out, you are very lucky, because silver soared. Have a great day!

Sincerely,

Dan
