The price of silver has tracked gold higher of a sudden, yet not fully explained, at least as far as fundamentals gold rush for gold. US Treasury yields have retreated from near two-year highs on 2-year and 10-year notes.

The 24 area is where price has reacted a number of times in the past, so it would be anticipated to offer the bulls a hard time in conquering it.
