Silver Price Analysis: XAG/USD rebound remains elusive below 200-DMA

  • Silver price snaps four-day downtrend while bouncing off the lowest levels since early November 2022.
  • Bearish MACD signals, sustained trading below 200-DMA keep sellers hopeful.
  • Multiple hurdles stand tall to challenge XAG/USD buyers.

Silver price (XAG/USD) clings to mild gains around $20.70 as bulls struggle to defend the first daily gains in five during early Tuesday.

That said, the bright metal dropped to the lowest levels since November 2022 before bouncing off $20.56. The metal’s recovery could be linked to a U-turn from the three-month-old horizontal support.

Despite the latest rebound, the XAG/USD remains on the seller’s radar as it stays below the 200-DMA amid bearish MACD signals.

Even if the precious metal crosses the 200-DMA hurdle of $21.00, a downward-sloping resistance line from February 02, close to $21.25 by the press time, could challenge the Silver buyers afterward.

It’s worth observing that the XAG/USD bears remain hopeful unless the quote stays below the $22.00-10 resistance area comprising multiple tops marked since the last November.

On the contrary, a daily closing below the aforementioned three-month-old horizontal support near $20.50 will challenge an ascending support line from early September 2022, around $20.25 to please the Silver bears.

It should be noted that the $20.00 psychological magnet acts as an extra filter toward the south.

Overall, the Silver price remains weak unless breaking the $22.10 hurdle. The downside moves, however, appear to have limited room towards the south.

AUD/USD sticks to positive bias above 0.7100; lacks bullish conviction

AUD/USD trades with a positive bias for the second straight day, holding above 0.7100 in the Asian session on Friday as softer US bond yields keep US Dollar bulls on the back foot. Furthermore, hawkish RBA Governor Bullock's comments boost rate hike bets and support the Aussie. However, the Fed's hawkish outlook, along with geopolitical uncertainties, limits USD losses and caps the pair.

USD/JPY approaches 158.00 as Japanese Yen resumes decline

USD/JPY is resuming its upside in the European session on Friday, refreshing two-week highs and nearing 158.00. The Japanese Yen extends losses, despite the Bank of Japan's (BoJ) expected rate hike to 1.25% and hawkish Governor Ueda's comments, as two surprise dissents against the rate hike weigh on it.

Gold keeps the bid tone in place; still below $4,400

Gold adds to the optimism seen in the second half of the week, trading with decent gains just below the $4,400 mark per troy ounce on Friday. The precious metal’s advance finds traction in declining crude oil prices and fresh selling pressure on the US Dollar.

Why altcoin season isn't coming back — and what stole its capital
If, after two years of being frozen in ice, Katara and Sokka woke you up to the crypto market, it would seem like 100 years have passed. With Bitcoin soaring to record highs just over a year ago, everyone expected a routine altcoin season, where investors take profits from the top crypto to chase higher returns in altcoins.
BoJ Recap: Not as hawkish as expected

The BoJ raised its short-term interest-rate target to 1.25% from 1.00% in a 7-2 vote, marking another step in the normalisation of monetary policy and widely matching what everyone has been expecting for weeks. Governor Kazuo Ueda said the policy phase had changed.
