Silver finds support at $16.2. COT futures data show that the Commercial Trader Short/Long Ratio is down to 1.23. This is a strong buy signal. The COT data can be seen on barchartdotcom and goldseekdotcom. Since USD has shown a lot of strength recently, it is reasonable to cost average smaller positions into this over the next 4-8 weeks. I am long 1 silver future and will open a half position in USLV in my 401k today.
SLV is a 1x long etf. USLV is a 3x long etf with an average volume of 2.9 million shares so it is highly liquid.
