It&rsquo;s setting up for a big move.<\/p>\n<p>For the past two months, silver has been chopping back and forth in a relatively tight trading range. This allowed the chart to build up energy to fuel a big move in one direction or the other. Now, it looks like that move will get started soon.<\/p>\n<p>Take a look&hellip;<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.jeffclarktrader.com\/JMU\/images\/202011\/20201123-MM-01.png\" width=\"700\" style=\"width:100%; max-width:700px; margin: 0 auto;\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The red lines on the chart show the trading range silver has been in for the past two months. The blue lines show a &ldquo;consolidating triangle&rdquo; pattern &ndash; which is a series of higher lows and lower highs &ndash; that often occurs just before a breakout move. The chart is approaching the apex of that triangle. So, we&rsquo;re likely to get a breakout within the next several days.<\/p>\n<p>Breakouts from similar patterns earlier this year led to big price moves. And, we&rsquo;ll likely see the same thing this time as well.<\/p>\n<p>The question, of course is&hellip; Which way?<\/p>\n<table bgcolor=\"#eeeeee\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"10\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"border: 1px solid #D7D7D7; margin-bottom:20px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 15px;padding-right: 15px; padding-top: 10px; font-family: Arial,sans-serif;font-size:17px; line-height:24px;\">\n<p align=\"center\" style=\"-ms-text-size-adjust: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: none; margin-bottom: 20px; font-size: 18px;\"><strong>Free Trading Resources<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Have you checked out Jeff&#8217;s free trading resources on his website?

They&rsquo;re all in neutral conditions. So, they don&rsquo;t favor one direction over the other. We might as well just flip a coin.<\/p>\n<p>But&hellip; seasonal factors do favor the silver bulls here.<\/p>\n<p>For whatever reason, silver has a habit of rallying during the final weeks of the year. Silver gained 8% in the final six weeks of 2017. It rallied 14% between Thanksgiving and Christmas in 2018. Silver popped 8% in the last few weeks of 2019.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And, it&rsquo;s setting up for another big move this year.<\/p>\n<p>I think the bulls have the edge.<\/p>\n<p>But, traders should respect a move in either direction. A move above $24.70 per ounce should get a rally started. A move below $23.90 will likely lead to a decline.<\/p>\n<p>Best regards and good trading,<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/casey-assets.s3.amazonaws.com\/images\/misc\/jeff-clark-signature.png\" width=\"200\" style=\"max-width:200px; width:100%;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Jeff Clark<\/p>\n<h2 align=\"center\"><strong>Reader Mailbag<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Today, <em>Jeff Clark Trader<\/em> member Raymond and <em>Delta Report <\/em>member Wei-Zhi share the reasons why they&rsquo;re grateful for Jeff&rsquo;s help&hellip;<\/p>\n<blockquote style=\"border-left: 4px solid #ccc; margin: 0px 30px 0px 10px;padding-left: 15px;\">\n<p style=\"-ms-text-size-adjust: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: none; margin-bottom: 20px;\">I can&#8217;t tell you how irritating it is when another trading editor I follow makes his gains claim based on buying prices I never saw, and selling prices I couldn&#8217;t get. In almost every case with you so far, I&#8217;ve done better both buying and selling your recommendations than the buy and sell prices in your emails.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not a lot of money right now, but it makes me feel really good that I&#8217;m doing better rather than worse. I can&#8217;t tell you how good this makes me feel, but I hope that by thanking you like this you might get the idea and feel some of the gratification that I feel. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>And, you don&#8217;t waste your time telling me how well the transaction did when annualized. So, let me share this: the 100% gain you led me to in three weeks is 1733% annualized. That&#8217;s definitely a laudatory performance! Thanks, once again. I&#8217;m gradually getting comfortable with this, and am starting to see how you really could fund a nice retirement this way.<\/p>\n<p align=\"right\" style=\"-ms-text-size-adjust: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: none; margin-bottom: 20px;\"><strong>&ndash; Raymond<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote style=\"border-left: 4px solid #ccc; margin: 0px 30px 0px 10px;padding-left: 15px;\">\n<p style=\"-ms-text-size-adjust: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: none; margin-bottom: 20px;\">Doing business nowadays, especially option trading, is not easy &ndash; for many of us.
