"groundhog day for silver - again", page-14

It should be pretty obvious.

If you want to buy a silver contract on Comex, which is for 5,000 ounces of silver, then every dollar move against you is US$5,000 dollars.

So let's be realistic. To expect to control 5,000 ounces of silver with only $20,000 or $30,000 down is nothing short of being ridiculously over leveraged imo and just asking to be forced out at a loss.
