MMAs tightening so might be a trade tonight.... maybe

I'm negative for saying this but something doesn't feel right. Also, I've never really understood the whole rolling over of commercial short positions? There have been claims that the commercial banks have long-standing short positions and see significant unrealised losses when the price goes up. Has anyone ever heard of these claims? I've never looked into it, so I don't actually know for sure. If it were the case then there'd be an expectation the commercials would need to heavily short silver and push the price down to a level where they can finally close off their positions to allow silver to climb in price significantly. When I think about that, the whole idea of perpetually rolling over of shorts seems unrealistic.
 
From what institution? Have you a link? Proof? You do know that it is not illegal to short ..... just don't get caught with ya pants down.
 
I understand your caution. Only because I have followed the silver train for a long time. I have seen a few ups and so many downs with silver and wonder why I still hold it.

Man, you've really misunderstood what I've said. I was just referring to the claim that the short positions don't close, they just get added to and rolled over. I think the claim originated from the Max Keiser times of 'Buy Silver, Crash JP Morgan". That the price of silver would need to make a massive correction before it can rise to new heights, as they would need to close off their short positions.

Of course shorts are legal. I don't know why you felt the need to state that to me.
