Silver Price Analysis: XAG/USD edges up, maintain its bullish bias, buyers target $24.00
- Silver price stays firm, despite subdued trading conditions.
- Key resistance levels in focus for XAG/USD, with $24.00 as immediate hurdle, followed by June high at $24.52.
- Downside risks include potential drop below the 200-DMA at $23.32 as a critical support to watch.
Silver price advanced on Thursday by 0.91%, amid low volume conditions, and as the Asian Pacific session begins, trades at around $23.82, unchanged in the early Friday session, as Japan and the US markets, reopen after being on holiday.
Silver daily chart portrays the grey metal as neutral to upward biased but remains near the weekly highs, which could pave the way for a test of the $24.00 figure. Once cleared, the next resistance would be the Jun 9 high at $24.52 before XAG/USD climbs to $25.00. Once surpassed, that would cement the uptrend, and expose the year-to-date (YTD) high at $26.12.
Conversely, if XAG/USD falls below the November 23 low of $23.60, that could pave the way for testing the 200-day moving average (DMA) at $23.32. If sellers drag prices below that demand zone, the XAG/USD would shift neutral bearish, and expose the 20-DMA at $23.13, followed by the 50-DMA at $22.75.
