Last Friday saw some wild moves in commodity markets that caught everyone's attention.

Silver and platinum both surged over 10% in a single trading session—the kind of spike you rarely see outside extreme market conditions. This kind of aggressive upside action has shown up before during major rallies, particularly back in the 2010s and during the 1970s boom. But here's the thing: these moves never stick around.

When you get spikes like this, they typically signal the tail end of a run, not the beginning. The momentum fades fast. Coming into next week, traders should be watching carefully to see if this reversal pattern plays out the way history suggests it usually does.

It's another one of those one-day trading rallies, still just trying to hold on and then run away, that's how history has always played out. I didn't get in on the silver surge, and now it just feels exhausting to watch. A 10% increase sounds great, but once it actually happens, you should sell, don't be greedy. Wait for a reversal; these peaks are usually just traps, let's see what happens next week. This time it's different? Uh... I don't see what's different. Here we go again, a bunch of people chasing the high, then getting trapped. Why are the events of the 1970s still repeating themselves? Staying close to watch, huh? I'll just watch this market decline and go short.

Another short-term surge, looks exciting but crashes right after, history just keeps repeating itself.

It's the same old trick again, a 10% surge in a single day? I'm just waiting to see how it drops back down.

It's the same story again, history always repeats itself, huh? A 10% single-day drop feels like it's going to crash.

It's that same story of "history repeating itself" again, but can we believe it this time? Honestly, it's a bit tiring.

It's the same old trick again, claiming there's risk just because it rises 10% in a day? I think this rebound in silver and platinum is just a bait History will repeat itself but never exactly the same. How are those who said this last time doing now?

Is it that again? History is just repeating itself. A 10% surge and you want me to FOMO in, haha. --- The recent surge in silver is a bit outrageous. It feels like it will plunge next week. --- Peak = Reversal, this logic makes sense. Place a bet that it will fall back next week. --- No way, are we going to see the 70s again? Wake up, everyone. This time it's not that simple. --- Such a strong rally definitely means someone is dumping, waiting to buy the dip and that's it. --- Silver and platinum both up 10% at the same time? That's a bit suspicious, friends. --- History always repeats, but someone always gets caught. I'll just watch. --- The market is at the end, but I already cleared my positions long ago. Whatever happens, happens.

It's the same old story again; history repeats itself, but it's always new faces losing money.
