Without more silver mined out to fuel the modern era of EVs, Ai, Solar and anything tech then welcome to the dawn of a global recession.

Silver prices have to rise so silver miners will benefit and shorting silver as a long term strategy is a sure bet to losses.

Spoofing or not, this market data might give a signal into their modus operandi which might help in decision-making in investing.

This spoofing (maybe) also happened on the 28th January 2026 with £58m in 4 unknown trades on that week where the big Friday (30th Jan) crash in silver and also in FRES SP.

If it's a signal of a bigger crash in silver and FRES SP value, then I can only assume to not buy into FRES now given the correlation between FRES SP and Silver price; and to wait near or until Chinese New Year finishes in China which is Tuesday, February 24, 2026.

Seen_it_done_it,

The FCA is a toothless regulator and not worth the effort to report it given they don't bite the hand that feeds it.

"The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is funded entirely through mandatory fees and levies charged to the financial services firms it regulates."

If "Total nonsense conspiracy garbage", then why does someone do it.

Look at the FRES share trade tab now to see these two BIG trades.

I believe it's spoofing sell order at £39.84 of two unknown trades at 13:07pm to the total value of £12m or £6m each on a market bid price of £37.56 and market offer price of £37.66.

These low and zero unknown trades are to masked the BIG buy or sell in FRES at market close. You won't see these trades registered during market trading hours and someone is making an effort to hide these big trades if real or not.

At 13:07pm 2 Unknown trades of £6m each or total of £12m at price £39.84 was probably executed. I can only assume that the 1-2 weeks of pumping up the FRES SP allowed some big institution to exit and sell FRES to the value of £12m. If the £12m was executed today then they've achieved their exist otherwise I'd assume it was spoofing to push the FRES SP downwards.

It's anyone's guess what happen but for certain we're in a pond where there's a big 'catfish' institution disturbing the waters to hide it's attacks on the small fish aka retail investors.

They're spoofing FRES since 15:46pm in the afternoon.

Only retail wants a higher SP in FRES or silver, whilst institutions , banks and countries wants a lower silver price to flush out the weak and then buy in at the lows.

We're heading towards an inflection level in the price on silver and also in silver miners. The Asian markets is taking time out for Chinese New Year, the West have control and influence without the threat of a big whale to prevent them from shorting these markets down further.

Expect double bottom in FRES SP to test £33.44 level or lower as oppose to testing breaching above the £40 SP level for FRES which it failed 3-4 times.

I'm still sitting on hands and watching with FRES.

CaptainSwag,

Yup i'm crazy...but that's the buy prices I'm dreaming of.

Also brought into Experian at £23.85 around 40% falls from it's ATH... :)

Love buying bargain shares in good companies.

We're in no man's land at the moment with FRES.

I just can't shake the notion that lower silver prices will ease speculative interest in silver and hence benefits both USA and China. So I'm happy to buy on dips at £33.44 and much lower prices like £31, £26 or £18. Roughly, where £26 be a 40% drop ATH, £21 be a 50% drop from ATH and £18 be a 60% drop from ATH.

60% falls in SP from ATH be like recession % falls.

This is were Chartism comes into play when buying Experian.

Know your support and resistance levels and buy. Remember to dollar cost averaging and to buy on the dips.

My Buying Tranches:

Buy: £22.73 to £23.90 range (40%+ fall from all time high with around 2% Yield)

Buy near: £20 mark. (50%+ fall from all time high with around 2.35% Yield)

Buy near: £15 mark. (60%+ fall from all time high with around 3.15% Yield)

Buy near: £10 mark. (75%+ fall from all time high with around 4.7% Yield)

*Dividends based on 2024 at the £0.47 level.

In most recessions, stocks usually fall at least 40-60% from their all time highs so buying EXPN below £20 SP be a gift in my honest opinion.

Critical Date to see : 26th Feb 2026 where we'll see if the emperor 'COMEX' has not clothes 'silver'.

They're be begging silver miners like FRES to sell their silver to them... Yet be aware that Asia is taking time out for Chinese New Year (lunar new year) so watch them use every trick in the book to bash silver prices downwards by forcing the longs out.

When you have an infinite dollar printing press to maintain the strength of the US dollar and to act as backstop in stopping the US economy from slipping into a global financial crisis like 2008/09; then it's without doubt the US will support the bullion banks to push the price of paper silver down further. Well at the very least if your optimistic of silver and FRES upwards SP movement do wait for a double bottom around the £33.44 range to buy in.

It's not about the paper monopoly fait money lost but reputation that COMEX can't deliver the physical stuff where it has to show to the world it's empty hands \ pockets and vaults which means one thing that COMEX is Toast as a business.

84% margin requirement hikes on Silver Feb or March futures contracts sounds reasonable yet i'm betting it probably be over 90%.

Who needs algos when you have politicians who are willing snitch our national security decision-making secrets out to people like ESP tien and their buddies. The whole game is rigged at the top and the ESP tien files gives a good insight into the workings of these people dealings at the top.

Kinda shock when you here during the Gulf War in the 1990's the PM took millions £5m to £30m from the Kazakhstan government just for his consultancy fees.

There's still a lot of shorts in Silver these bullion banks along with CRIMEX (western metal exchanges) and the western regulators are doing everything to keep gold and silver down. Either to reduce their short exposures (swift exit to cut losses) or to hurt the stubborn leveraged longs with their deep pockets. They need to dent the gold and silver miners too as it plays into the narrative of normal market movements and not rigging it further under the watchful eyes of everyone.

It's like battle of the £36.50 level against the £35.50 level on FRES SP.

They're trying to drive the FRES SP down with spoofing and these unknown low or zero trades. Crazy!

In March you'll probably see COMEX raise margin requirements to over 84% to flush out the people holding the long Silver contracts for March 2026 maturity.

So if:

If in March 2026 silver at $86 price crashes by 30% and then it be $61.

If in March 2026 silver at $76 price crashes by 30% and then it be $54.

Yup.. FRES SP will probably fall the same in proportion to silver and hence FRES SP might revisit from £35.50 to the £26 level again.

Prepare for the worst and hope for the best in investing in FRES.

History rhymes like in May 2011 where this is what exactly happened Silver fell from $49 to $35 a near enough 30% fall from COMEX raising margin requirements to 84%.

Pushing silver down they also need to push the silver miners SP down too given they need to make it look convincing as if it's not a rigged manufactured take down of silver. Also a low silver price allows them to exit shorts, scare=off new buyers and help re-stock physical silver reserves in their vault)

Just stick to buying at near the dips at the FRES SP support levels and apply DCA to sell some shares on the re-bound upwards as to lower too much risk exposure on holding FRES.

My DCA buys be:

25% dip from FRES ATH = £33.54 (What happened recently to attain that low price level on Monday)

30% dip from FRES ATH = £31.30 (Like Hunt Brothers single day drop and a good base to test March 2026 thesis of COMEX screwed & Silver will rip higher)

41% dip from FRES ATH = £26.38 (Flush out in Nov 2025 to £20 about 25% fall. A good FRES SP level of significance)

53% dip from FRES ATH = £21.02 (Major high (£20 to £21 range in the years 2011 and 2016 and like Recession level % drops.)

60% dip from FRES ATH = £17.89 (Like Recession level % drops)

The future of AI, EV and Solar make it hard for people to ignore that silver demand is high, silver supply is low and that silver prices needs to rise to reflect it.

A few mentioned about the Asian AI Avatar for his common sense talk. Well this could be the real OG channel. This YouTube link is: @OGJohnAG.

Silver be one of these metals so why Silver prices going to go ballistic:

- The low COMEX silver price 86.71 is a gift to China \ India and Asia to keep on buying physical silver away from USA.

- If US government going to stockpile silver to reduce outflows from going abroad, the silver price will rise.

Higher margin calls will save the bullion banks bacon and COMEX. I reckon COMEX will probably raise margin requirements to over 50% in March to flush out the leverage buyers from their March 2026 Futures contracts because COMEX can't deliver the physical silver.

Once the leverage buyers are out the silver market then silver should find its true market price in the world. Might even see convergence between the Shanghai Metal Exchange silver price and the COMEX silver price. Good to see people queueing up to buy physical silver from their local dealers so hence pushing up silver prices.
