"Gold closed down by $7.80 to finish the week at 1187.70. Silver however did not follow its wealthier cousin, it remained unchanged at 18.11 refusing to go below the 18.00 mark.
The open interest on the gold comex fell considerably with Fridays reading down 6485 contracts (basis Thursday) to 552,377.
The silver comex Open Interest behaved differently, rising by 1568 contracts to 117,862.
It looks like we have reached the rock bottom stage in OI with respect to silver where no amount of bank intervention will cause the longs to liquidate.
In gold we still have some weak longs that refuse to understand the criminal nature of how the banks operate."
OK, let me see if I understand this. They are weak because they sell when the price falls below a certain level, which possibly further facilitates the downward price movement ?
So I guess by "weak" he means, a speculator or other market participant who gives up a long position ?
