If I were a rich kid I'd definitely short Gold and Silver ... even during a sweet secular bull market, and even without GSOs -- the fact that my Endgegner (CMC Markets) doesn't offer Guaranteed Stop Orders for commodities might be another reason why I have yet to make my first PM CFD trade ... right now I'd feel too much like a casino patron.
