Silver Price Analysis: XAG/USD bulls take a respite after failing to crack $25.00

  • Silver price rallies more than 1.10% on Tuesday, courtesy of the Fed’s dovish comments.
  • Buyers remain in charge but must reclaim $25.00 so they can test year-to-date (YTD) figures.
  • If sellers keep the spot price below $25.00, that will sponsor a leg-down to $24.00.

Silver price refreshed three-month highs shy of the $25.00 figure and retreated to the $24.80s area after dovish remarks by a Federal Reserve (Fed) official weakened the Greenback. At the time of writing, the XAG/USD is trading at $24.88, gaining more than 1%

XAG/USD has extended its gains for the fourth straight session, though it failed to climb above the $25.00 figure, which would likely sponsor a leg up towards the July 19 high at $25.23. Once those two ceiling levels are conquered, buyers would need to decisively break the $26.00 mark, ahead of testing the May 5 high at $26.13.

On the downside, if Silver sellers keep the grey metal from printing a daily close above $25.00, expect a leg-down, initially to test the waters at around the November 27 daily low of $24.27. Prices could potentially consolidate around that area, but further support lies at around the November 17 high at $24.14, ahead of the $24.00 mark.
