After 15 years of trading commodities, I've never been more bullish on silver. Here's my complete 2025 strategy and why I believe we're at the beginning of a major precious metals rally.## Why Silver is Set to Outperform in 2025
Silver currently trades at $31-32, but the fundamentals suggest a move to $45+ is highly probable. Here's why:
1. Industrial Demand Explosion
Silver isn't just a precious metal—it's critical for:
- Solar panels (60% growth in demand)
- Electric vehicles (each EV uses 25-50g of silver)
- 5G infrastructure
- Electronics manufacturing
2. Supply Deficits
The Silver Institute projects a 215 million ounce deficit in 2025. Mines can't keep up with demand, and silver is often a byproduct of other mining—meaning supply is relatively inelastic.
3. Gold-Silver Ratio
Currently at 85:1, historically it averages 60:1. If gold stays at $2,600, silver should be at $43. If gold rallies to $3,000 (my base case), silver could hit $50.
4. Monetary Policy Tailwinds
With the Fed likely cutting rates in H1 2025, real yields will compress—bullish for precious metals.
## My Trading Strategy
### Entry Zones:
- Accumulation: $29-31
- Aggressive adds: $27-29 (if we get a dip)
- Stop loss: Below $26
### Target Zones:
- T1: $36 (conservative, 15% gain)
- T2: $42 (realistic, 35% gain)
- T3: $48-50 (bull case, 55% gain)
### Position Sizing:
60% physical silver (long-term hold)
30% silver miners (PAAS, AG, FSM)
10% leveraged instruments (bull certificates)## Risk Management
No trade is without risk. Here's how I protect capital:
Technical Invalidation: A close below $26 would break the multi-year uptrend. I'd exit immediately.
Position Limits: Never more than 20% of portfolio in any single commodity
Profit Taking: I'll take 30% off at T1, 40% at T2, and let the remaining 30% run to T3
## Catalysts to Watch
📅 Q1 2025: Fed rate decision
📊 Q2 2025: Industrial demand data
⚡ Ongoing: Geopolitical tensions (bullish for safe havens)
## Bottom Line
Silver offers asymmetric risk-reward. Downside is limited by industrial demand floor around $28-29. Upside is potentially explosive to $45-50.
I'm positioning for a 40%+ move in 2025. The setup is too compelling to ignore.
