No I don’t like “Pair” trades, I don’t consider them an arbitrage at all. The arbitrage was physical silver against spot silver, but you would have to be able to buy the physical.

no, I got rid of it the next morning.

No regrets, because I was able to use the money for a better return. But it does make me wonder, if I should still be more patient. The thing is, it’s self-doubt. Technically, I may be right, but if the market is telling me I’m wrong….

Just like SLW, had I held, GDX would work out, however I’m wary of silver and gold at the moment. I think they’ll go down some more before resuming the uptrend, so I bailed at the first sign of trouble.

What’s your arbitrage strategy? short gold/long silver?

Not sure if you’re still holding GDX, but it’s jumping atm. I’m showing +5.55% as is SLV +3.20%
