Up to yesterday the silver market was the best market to trade even better than crude now at IB they put up the margin as of this morning above € 18'000 for contract I find excessive. The decision of higher margin 3 times this week is of the CME but I see already these morning that the market is not so liquid. I really do not understand why this is happen I hope in the afternoon the market behave better.

Sure, as long as it's this direction it's ok. As soon as the small guys take something from the big guys they change the rules.

Isn't life just simple ?
