Nice trade.  I've thought a bit about what may happen in silver over the next couple of months and what 
is driving my ideas is the similarity of silver to what happened in gold a couple of years ago.  My next 
time point of significance is in June which is exactly what it was like when gold made its high a couple of 
years ago.  What happened then was the XAU held up in the top area until early June without making a 
new high and then they took out both the stocks and the metal and shot 'em.<g>

The analysis that I arrived at from a longer term perspective in silver suggests that the 1980's bear 
market is still the name of the game but this may be the last run for the bears.  One more new low 
below $3.50 whenever it occurs ought to finish the structure.  How long that takes is open to question.  
>From a much longer perspective the only significant time point that I can see in the precious metals is in 
March, 2002.  That particular point is probably a low if it is of significance.  I sure would hate to see the 
metals continue to drift down for the next four years...

Can you show me some more detail on the history of this cycle?
