Let's end the year with some good news. The Premium Service bought the SLV Dec $40C for $1.70 on Sep 19th. Assuming 10 contracts, that's a $1,700 bet. At Dec expiration, those calls went off the board at $19.30, generating proceeds of $19,300. Assuming those proceeds were rolled into the SLV Mar $55C on Dec 1st, currently up over 200%, making total proceeds from that $1,700 SLV purchase in September is now at $57,900. Now for the good news: For new subscribers, and those current subscribers who may not have gone all in on the SLV train, the best may be yet to come. Taking out last week's high Silver close of $79.32 and/or the high print from pre-market on Monday of $85.75 will bring into view triple digit Silver for a first quarter 2026 target and we should be well entrenched by then in March 2026 SLV calls somewhere in the range of $75-90. Maybe higher. Stay tuned for that Special Alert. Otherwise, we are monitoring the 50% trailing stop to protect existing profits in the Mar $55C, stop currently @ +178.48% Current stop on Mar $55C = Close < $11.00 We don't know when those new highs will kick in, maybe days, weeks and at the most, months away, but those new highs are coming. Toward that end,I sent this out earlier today to the PRO members, it touches on price benchmarks in Gold and/or Silver that suggest if more a a retracement is due in January, or, if instead, Silver is on the cusp of new highs, now: Gold & Silver: Short-Term Breaks This is my Gold Daily chart. I am using it in a sense as a leading indicator for Silver, to evaluate the shorter-term likelihood that Silver is not done correcting, or on the cusp of a new leg higher. What Gold does today and into the first few days of the new year may give us a heads-up on Silver. Gold A close below the support trendline (around $4,300) would be bearish, a close above the key resistance trendline (around $4,400) is bullish, not only for Gold, but also for Silver. Higher and not only will we be tempted to add more SLV calls, but GLD as well. Lower, and taking profits our Jan Silver calls is in order. Jan SLV Calls (Pro Service) With this SLV Jan call trading at $16.15, trailing stop is at about $10.00. Silver Any close below $70.50 would be a shot across the bow that Silver has further to go to the downside. Accordingly, Gold closing below $4,300 and/or Silver closing below $70.50 and profit-taking on our Silver Jan Calls would be in order.
