junkie - see my comments on Silver just below.  A valid trigger on that setup was a print above yesterday's high (hammer) with a stop at yesterday's low.  Nice move up after trigger - trim and trail up stops in accordance with your style. 

    Thanks, Steve.. but I cannot

    Thanks, Steve.. but I cannot do that intraday: I have a day job. I need a lot more information than just candles, as I trade futures with $10 per point.

    This EW could be true although I do not believe it fully: https://www.insidefutures.com/article/3127836/Elliott%20Wave%20View:%20Silver%20Has%20Scope%20for%20More%20Downside.htmlThe indices may go lower from here.

    junkie - it was NOT

    junkie - it was NOT intraday (they were daily candles and the trigger was after hours) 

    Silver closes at 2:40pm Eastern,

    Silver closes at 2:40pm Eastern, not at the 4pm as the indexes do. At 5pm the move was already under way.

    However, this entire move looks like a huge stop run (deliberate manipulation by bullion banks). Was there a good reason to buy technically after a 3.4% drop? Were any of the indicators supporting a buy? Thanks for the info.

    It may be a stop

    It may be a stop run but I was simply pointing out a valid trigger and now one must manage the trade.  Best wishes as it's very hard to trade futures without being able to monitor the entire day.
