This stuff is fun but we have to get our units right. Which is why I like showing my work. Ya know, it can then be criticised constructively.
Tried to message you, not allowed.
Wanted to thank you for the help & correction.
Silver contract = 5,000 ounces
2,776 contracts standing for delivery on 12/2/22 (image above)
2,776 x 5,000 = 13,880,000 ounces
13,880,000 / 16 ounces per pound = 867,500 pounds
867,500 pounds / 2,000 pounds per ton = 433.75 tons
Corrected again. Thank you!
A LOT of Gold & Silver delivery notices for 4 days!
