OPTIONS PLAY: SILVER SPIKES
According to my technical indicators the COMEX/GLOBEX SILVER FUTURES market is in what I call a SUPER-TREND higher.
MY ANALYSIS
Fundamentally, as the U S. DOLLAR INDEX settled down this week and began to trek lower breaking below support, the COMEX/GLOBEX SILVER FUTURES market seemed to benefit. Another factor in pushing SILVER prices higher could be in my opinion, the fact that Greece may be close to receiving a deal.
Technically, I see the COMEX/GLOBEX SILVER FUTURES market in a SUPER-TREND higher as the market trades above both the 9 day SIMPLE MOVING AVERAGE and the 20 day SIMPLE MOVING AVERAGE as the indicators point higher. See daily chart below.

OPTIONS PLAY
A potential play here could be to buy May Silver Bull Call Spreads or May Calls. Another potential play could be to sell deep out of the money puts to collect premium. Either play does involve substantail risk and is not suitable for everyone. When we buy Call Spreads or Calls we also buy in a 3 to 1 ratio, a Put to help protect us against a MAJOR correction in the market.
