Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/12/2012 - 18:39 Copper Crude Nat Gas While it is unknown if this is merely a bull trap to get yet another bubble going, then to slaughter everyone with the same relentless barrage of margin hikes as we saw in the spring of 2011, or simply volumes in commodities have gotten so low that even the CME is willing to allow a little price appreciation in exchange for participation is unknown, but as of April 16 silver initial and maintenance margins will be 12.5% lower, while copper margins are declining by 20%.

Of course its a trap.

The sold over 700 million oz of paper Silver and only moved the price 65 cents downside. last year when the pulled a similar stunt they slammed the price over 5 dollars.

They had to lower it because it was reaching a point where you would have to be a 100% physical to participate.

People will rush in because this a new tactic not yet seen and the spin doctors can push on unsuspecting clients but once the new trap is revealed.it will soon be avoided like the rest.

bottom line.....The strong hands are winning and the proof is in the drastic measures taken by the cartel
