Monex sell call - Gold?
 
What does the roundtable make of this -

My Monex rep calls today saying that he "recommends" that I sell my position since gold bounced down off the 655 mark. He says that I should sell and wait for a pullback to buy back into silver.

First - he never called in late summer when we were all getting hammered down to 560 with such sage advice. Wish he would have.

Now - he calls when most think a break out is imminent and seasonal indicators are pointing north.

I think there's something else to it. They need people to sell out for some reason.

plus....

I think anyone would be foolish to really think your "broker" has your best interest in mind when making buy/sell calls.

Comments?

You answered your own question. If he didn't reco you buy when Gold and Silver tanked this Summer I would just disregard his call now.

I have had my Scotia Mocatta Broker cold-call three times suggesting a buy or options. Each time I could have made money by doing the opposite.

Ask him what the hell is he asking you for. HE is loaning your share out already so they can short you out of your profits. Tell em to F off or you will go to a cash account and not permit them to loan your shares anymore. What a prick. What do you even have em for? Do your own trades. :s15: You don't need those people.

Sad thing is that some of his other clients will probably listen to him.:banghead:
