Elliott Wave Forecast Team ElliottWave-Forecast.com

The short‑term Elliott Wave view in Silver (XAGUSD) indicates that the cycle from the July 17, 2026 low continues to unfold as a clear impulsive structure. From that low, wave (1) advanced to $60.929 before a measured pullback in wave (2) reached $56.539. The subsequent rally in wave (3) extended to $66.79, confirming the strength of the impulsive sequence. A corrective decline in wave (4) followed and ended at $62.54. This pullback displayed a well‑defined zigzag subdivision, with wave A finishing at $63.47, wave B at $66.56, and wave C at $62.61. Completion of wave C also marked the end of wave (4) at a higher degree, reinforcing the broader impulsive context.

Wave (5) has now begun to develop, and its internal structure shows another impulsive formation. From the wave (4) low, wave 1 progressed to $70.01, establishing the initial leg of the final sequence. A pullback in wave 2 is currently in progress as the market works to correct the cycle from the August 19 low. This correction may unfold in either three or seven swings before the metal resumes its advance. In the near term, the pivot at $62.61 remains a key level. As long as this level holds, dips should continue to find support within a corrective sequence, allowing for further upside potential in the broader impulsive structure.

America’s self‑inflicted trade wound

I’m conflicted about the trade war that the U.S. has started with Canada. Let’s be clear: any representation that Canada has been taking unfair advantage of the U.S. or that they have been treating us badly for years is a bogus characterization. In reality, the shoe is on the other foot. It’s the U.S. that has been behaving badly.

Canada hits US goods with tariffs; The rate market sees a problem

On September 8, Canada begins charging its own importers 15%, 25% and 50% on roughly 700 lines of American goods. The measure is billed as dollar for dollar, and on the arithmetic of covered trade it is. What it is not is a tax on the United States.
