Enter how many ounces you currently hold, select a swap pair, and see exactly how many ounces you would receive at the current ratio — and how many you would gain if the ratio reverts to its historical average.
At a ratio of 65.0, your 100 oz of silver converts to 1.5385 oz of gold. If the ratio later falls to its historical average (~65), your gold would be worth 100.0 oz of silver — a gain of 0.0 oz vs. staying in silver.

The ratio swap strategy allows you to accumulate more ounces of a physical metal over time without adding new capital. When a ratio is at a historical extreme, you swap from the expensive metal into the cheap one. When the ratio reverts toward its historical average, you swap back — ending up with more ounces than you started with. The key insight is that you are measuring wealth in ounces, not dollars.
