+1PALLADIUM@2412 - OPEN LONG - Target: $3,600 (+50%)Might be a good entry.. looking for at least $3,600 before the current diversion is exhausted
The only reason I prefer silver & gold over palladium and other exclusive metals is that it's one step more difficult to assay and physically trade in general.
You can assay gold or silver using only fire and bone ash, but it gets a bit more cumbersome to test palladium, which eventually makes it a bad apocalypse coin.
Also, the margin for the physical market is really huge, at least from my experience in Egypt's market. No matter how far you refine your palladium it's going to be sold maximum at only 40-50% of the screen value.
However, the demand for palladium doesn't seem to be ending soon, although a very small number of people deal it, you can see them sniffing all around the gold alley in Khan el Khalili sneaking outside dealerships looking for any traces of palladium in cast silver bars being sold.
It can have all sorts of chemical, medical, and industrial applications but locally I've seen workshops use it frequently as a supplement for rhodium which became a nonexistent ATM..
