Nemethv, I was pondering a small purchase of 3SIL the other day, but remembered that if it drops by one third during any market session or overnight it will be suspended and you will lose everything or nearly everything. If you don't think that can happen you should note it did happened with a few 3x oil ETFs last year during the major volatility. If silver really spikes up, it would be very easy for the bullion banks to drop it that far almost immediately and wipe you out and if the market was closed when it happend you'd be screwed. A margin requirement hike on COMEX might be all that's required. You could literally go from 10 bags to zero just like that. It would be much safer to just buy 3x the positions size unleveraged or only hold 3SIL very short term and not overnight.
