Silver Price (XAG/USD) sellers take a breather at the lowest levels in four weeks, making rounds to $23.00 amid early Thursday in Asia.

In doing so, the bright metal seesaws around the monthly low after falling in the last three consecutive days. That said, the oversold RSI (14) line challenges the XAG/USD’s further downside.

As a result, a convergence of the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the metal’s upside from September 2022 to May 2023, near $22.80, becomes crucial for Silver sellers to watch.

Should the XAG/USD traders ignore the oversold RSI and break the $22.80 support confluence, a quick fall to the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of around $21.80 and then to an upward-sloping support line from September 2022, near $20.90, can’t be ruled out.

On the flip side, a daily closing beyond the 100-day EMA level of $23.50 becomes necessary to expect the Silver Price recovery.

Even so, a horizontal area comprising multiple levels marked since early 2023, near $24.55-65, will be the key to challenging the XAG/USD buyers before giving them control.

Overall, Silver price is likely to witness a corrective bounce from the aforementioned support but the upside room appears limited.

AUD/USD bulls regain control above 0.6950 amid USD retreat

AUD/USD regains traction and extends the previous day's bounce from the weekly low, aiming for 0.7000 in Asia on Friday. The overnight pullback in US bond yields keeps the US Dollar below an 18-month high, which in turn offers some support to the pair. Meanwhile, hawkish RBA expectations also keep the major underpinned.

USD/JPY clings to gains around 158.00 after data showed on Friday that Japan's Household Spending fell for the ninth straight month, undermining the Japanese Yen. Meanwhile, the US Dollar remains depressed as the overnight fall in US bond yields counters a hawkish Fed and geopolitical uncertainties, could cap any downside in the pair.

Gold remains range-bound below $4,200

Gold has given up some ground after an initial bullish attempt to reach weekly highs, returning to below the $4,200 mark per troy ounce on Friday. The US Dollar’s strong upside momentum, combined with rising US Treasury yields across the curve, seems to keep further gains in the yellow metal under scrutiny.

Has Bitcoin really escaped the macro forces it was built to fight?

Over 17 years ago, Satoshi Nakamoto designed Bitcoin (BTC) on the back of a global financial crisis as an alternative to the global monetary system outside the control of central banks, governments and traditional intermediaries. This raises a key question: has Bitcoin really become independent of the macroeconomic forces it was built to challenge?

The Euro is not the sick man of Europe. France's bond market is

EUR/USD remains under pressure, near the 17-month low of 1.1161 reached on Monday. The pair has lost more than 7% since its yearly peak, as concerns over France's public finances increasingly weigh on the single currency. But behind the weakness of the Euro (EUR), the problem does not necessarily lie with the European economy as a whole.
