Last August I told my subscribers to
prepare for a monster rally in Silver, which at the time of my forecast was
$18.73 per ounce. I drew up a chart and predicted a huge rally to $29 an
ounce, and we ended up at $31 or so just a few months later. This was
entirely a crowd behavioral move that I foresaw in advance, based on patterns
that R.N. Elliott developed in the 1920’s and 1930’s. My theory
was besides the crowd pattern (a 20 month odd Triangle consolidation), that
investor’s would begin to view Silver as “Poor man’s
Gold” and buy it. Literally, the idea is as simple as investors will
simply think that “Gold is too expensive, but silver is cheap”.
That is the explosion power that is behind this move from $19 to $50 an ounce
since late August 2010.
Below is the original chart I sent to
my subscribers outlining this triangle pattern and the likely move:
After Silver ran hard and fast, it
left a lot of talking heads on CNBC and everywhere else scratching their
heads and wondering what just happened. If you learn and understand the
basics of Elliott Wave Theory, you can begin to foresee what is about to
happen and stop scratching your head all the time. Watching the analysts on
CNBC is like watching the Monday morning quarterbacks following an NFL Sunday.
After that massive silver run from $18 to $31, it was time for a correction
and I called for $25 to $26.50 as likely in a normal pessimistic crowd wave 2
pattern down. Once that completed, I sent my subscribers the chart below
outlining another Bull wave to $39-$45 per ounce:
Silver then eventually ran to $45 per
ounce in April of 2011 and had a brief spike to near $50 to test the all time
highs just in the past week or so. The action has been wild since then,
because after a wave pattern from $18 to $31, then back to $26, then up to
$47… the crowd will begin to turn mildly pessimistic in a current
“wave 4 “ correction pattern. This is when you will begin to hear
excuses for Silver dropping, including believe it or not blamed on the death
of Osama Bin Laden. In truth, whatever happens near term to explain the
current correction in Silver is simply Monday morning quarterbacking. Using
the current days headlines to explain the action
that I already know is coming. Other excuses are the change in margin
requirements on silver contracts and the squaring of positions at end of
month etc.
I expect Silver to correct to the 40
to $42.75 areas based on my Fibonacci work and Elliott Wave views, and after
this 4th wave consolidation we will see a surge to as high as $60 per ounce.
Any pullbacks in Silver should be bought here and same with the Silver stocks
post haste. Below is my latest chart forecast on Silver:
