SuRe with cME mArGin HiKe

Is CME margin hike confirmed?

How many times can faken CME hike rates for silver? What's the highest they can go and what is it at now?

CME raising margin requirements won’t alone affect equities.

Any news? Or is CME dragging equities down along with it with the margin hike?

CME trying to recreate 2011 lmao. Got puts on a whim and seems they’re gonna hit

CME is so fearful of the whole thing breaking down that they just fully shut off for 10 hours only a few weeks ago. They can’t raise margin requirements enough to keep Pandora’s box shut forever

Oh wow more market manipulation thank you CME Now I'm torn between calls on silver due to undervaluation and scarcity and puts on silver due to blatant, obvious, heavy handed market manipulation to reduce its paper price.

It’s literally being manipulated by CME. This won’t end well. Physical is $90 on major markets. This is just pulling back on the slingshot. It worked in 2011, it won’t this time.

CME can't keep getting away with this!

lol second margin increase by CME. Silver 30%!! Now

CME will jack rates again imo

CME raising margin rates on silver again, almost like it could be 2011 all over again :)

>Gold Silver Platinum Palladium Futures Alert >CME hikes margin rates a second time in a week. >*Massive* increases : Gold 9%, Silver 30%, Platinum 25%, Palladium 22% They do not want you to have real money in debasement. The point is wealth transfer. To them.

CME announced after market close today that they are raising margin capital requirements by 10%+ again: [https://www.cmegroup.com/notices/clearing/2025/25-399.html](https://www.cmegroup.com/notices/clearing/2025/25-399.html)

SLV pullback was due to the margin repricing by CME. Quarterzips don’t return from Aspen until Monday. Time for the march to $100 with plenty of rugs and fuckery along the way.

Someone at CME: PAMP SUISSE IT

Hey CME group, any chance you want to change the margin requirements on silver again to make my 1k in puts go up $250

All the big guns from CME came out yesterday just to save some idiots who shorted silver Bought them just a single day lol This is so entertaining to watch and I don't even hold any silver positions 😂

Another CME margin hike incoming in....

I think any exposure to SLV at 70+ is suicide, if one CME margin hike won't kill the speculation, you can be sure another one is in the pipeline. The administration don't want Silver to be a monetary metal, its industrial uses are far too great to let the prices run wild.

Get fucked CME Stupid market manipulating thugs

CME manipulates during their night and they buy everything during their day

Last crack down on silver and gold was 11 days long. I really, really need a similar performance so I can toss the rest of this money at HL, CDE and NEM. Come on CME, do your thing!

We're likely in for half a month of a combination of sideways and downwards movements while the new CME margin capital requirements shake out some of the over-leveraged futures speculators. We could be also seeing a lot of overnight liquidations over the next few days, which will further depress prices, due to firms running risk-assessment models that are poorly tuned. Once gold consolidates for a few days and starts an uptrend, then it'll be time to amp up the leverage again. This will, likely, correspond with the Lunar New Year, which is one of the biggest buying periods for gold.

Thinking of lobbying for CME to get a futures offering covering human shit (fertiliser etc) - but then I remembered there's already bitcorn and real corn I guess

If everyone on here was serious about going balls deep on silver today, they would embrace this little flash crash right?  If they want to control the price from getting out of control, why would they do something that makes the price go down significantly? There's still a demand for it so even more people are gonna buy it. Which is going to make it go even higher, right?  The CME hiked margin requirements earlier this month and it had little effect on the price so what gives now? Does this mean it was really the peak?

Man wish I'd seen the CME announcement friday. At least Im never leveraged to the tits

Thanks CME, for fucking up precious metals.

CME turned off the buy button and a bank collapsed from selling futes. Couple good reasons

No thats stupid! Cme changed the rules and we going lower. Calls a few hours in when reversal comes xD

Yes cme changed margin req again… to manipulate the price and protect the shorts. We hit a bottom today then slingshot back up.

SLV is dropping because: The [CME Group](https://www.google.com/search?q=CME+Group&rlz=1C1CAFC_enUS884US884&oq=did+the+comex+increase+the+margin+of+silver+today&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIHCAEQIRigATIHCAIQIRigATIHCAMQIRigATIHCAQQIRigAdIBCDg5MTFqMWo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&mstk=AUtExfCY9AEpELdYqCJC3DwVl8IC1tLFLHR1LCUbeVOe2tqsi8nn8HJYKnvoPuwcXVrtaP-w23LcnOICFQnJNatMJjCg0Dhxr89QC5iepGjVVG6Bd7jXC9k93AspYx47ZE2s15_Ykef8A99c0OKd2Wm3F-VzBifbsDcNp_WnBnU3x3yA99vE04zv_WuVMoYqZ_aUL4sBOUw0k1iPvbm9A8H1bMSENZYcPi60Pd9BOCD6Ez6sozz6nEF40ndN3C8-TfkCPPDdz3yqu4Lm_OOwkF9Kwz8xHtUE60QwBvkcxq-zVHG2qw&csui=3&ved=2ahUKEwi8rcf99-KRAxXkEEQIHZaTPBEQgK4QegQIARAB) (which runs the COMEX) did increase margin requirements for silver futures, effective today, December 29, 2025, raising the initial margin to around $25,000 for March 2026 contracts, leading to significant selling and profit-taking in silver markets as it cools down from record highs.  **Key Details:** * **Effective Date:** December 29, 2025. * **New Margin:** Approximately $25,000 per contract (up from $22,000 or $20,000). * **Reason:** The exchange cited increased volatility and the need to manage risk as silver prices surged. * **Market Impact:** This increase forced leveraged traders to deposit more collateral or reduce positions, triggering sell-offs and corrections in both COMEX and MCX (Indian) silver markets.  This move by the CME aims to curb excessive speculation and follows a massive rally in silver prices, bringing relief to some markets while causing sharp price drops. 

Generational decade long silver baggies will be made today on open due to CME margin calls LMAO

There you go. CME got silver crushed Just like the 1970s and 2011 They won't win this time. We will be back soon.

On December 26, 2025, the CME Group announced an increase in margin requirements for silver futures. Starting December 29, 2025, the initial margin for March 2026 silver contracts will rise to $25,000. This move comes amid rising silver prices and growing concern about market manipulation. The CME’s decision is seen as another attempt to control silver’s price during a period of increased demand.

And CME thought $25k margin requirement would control Silver 😂

Expected. Will get worse tomorrow as CME raised margin requirements. What this gap up showed is is that after the margin requirements are met it's going to gap up again in a month or two. I'm buying al the dips with both fists.

CME is going to raise margins through the roof tomorrow afternoon if we have a 5%+ day....

Cme overheating servers tomorrow confirmed

Do we have a drinking game everytime the CME raise metal margins this week?

We're about to learn things about what the CME is willing to do when shit gets real.

CME has also hiked the margin requirements for Gold and Platnium......

here we go again regards… CME raises Silver Margin Requirements to $25,000

CME new SLV margin requirement vs China export ban Shit is going to be spicy to kick off the last week of the year!

I'm only holding GLD. So I don't have a horse in the race. But we are at an inflection point wrt CME's power over silver getting tested. So waiting eagerly for Monday. Rooting for all silver holders of course (please buy only etfs - don't buy the manipulated cme futures or options)

Ironically JPM is actually long silver now, CME is in a boat by themselves

An entire financial industry including CME and JPM trying to keep SLV prices low vs a single tweet from Elon. Let's see who wins this week 😆

Silver is physically limited 📈 Silver has higher margin limits CME 📉
