BITCOIN is losing multi-year support. Not a good look. We could see a flush here to 55k if there is no rebound soon.

$SLV closed at a 19% discount to NAV last night, by far biggest ever. Insane week. I haven’t seen anything this wild in the metal world since I watched VH1s Behind the Music on Motley Crew.

[Tarek I. Saab @TLoves2Trade]

Just a casual 25% down day in silver. Historic times.

[Tarek I. Saab @TLoves2Trade]

Some thoughts on silver. I just wrote this note to a friend asking about price expectations. Here are my personal views (not investment advice - do your own research):

When we broke out of a 50-year base at $50/ounce, this was an extremely significant technical level. Until that point, gold was leading the pm complex, and had already broken out, but everyone was looking for follow-through from silver. The base was enormous.

The last attempt was 2011, and it took almost 15 years to return. We finally broke in October. Breakouts of this magnitude are powerful, secular, and typically long-lasting (10+ years).

What we have seen over the past 12 weeks is an expression of how coiled silver was. We are extremely overbought, likely in a mania phase, and my expectation (and hope, for a healthy market) is that we pull back/consolidate over the next 2-3 months.

The first key technical level after the $50 breakout was $72. We launched to that number, and paused for only a few days. Once we broke $72, my technical target was $109. This is where we closed yesterday, and this is where price discovery is now happening.

We really want a pullback here. If/when price breaks 109 convincingly (particularly on the close) my next target is $163.

Structurally, I expect the terminal expectation for price in this cycle to exceed $300 and probably push towards $500/ounce (multi-year time horizon).

I'm keeping an eye on $NRP Natural Resource Partners.

Natural Resource Partners L.P. is a diversified natural resource company that owns, manages and leases a diversified portfolio of properties in the United States, including coal, industrial minerals and other natural resources.

Breaking out of an absolutely monster 20-yr base. The bigger the base, the higher in space.

While gold and silver are drawing attention, the 15-year breakout in copper is significant, and price will surprise to the upside. If we can hold above $6.25, I like a move to the $8.50-$9.00 range $COPX

[Tarek I. Saab @TLoves2Trade]

My podcast with "The Smashing Machine" Mark Kerr drops January 20th on @YallStreetTV. We discuss the award-winning biopic of his life, starring @TheRock and Emily Blunt - both of whom were nominated for Golden Globes for their performances. We also dive into the deeper subjects of manhood, purpose, addiction, and obsession. This is one of my favorite interviews. The conversation is not just for UFC fans - it's the story of the highs and lows of life and struggling to find our mission.
