Silver prices climb to a new three-month high at around the $ 24.80 area.

Silver price encounters solid resistance at around $24.90, though it remains trading in the green, posting solid gains of more than 1.30% on Monday due to a retracement of US Treasury bond yields, weakening the buck. That, alongside a scarce economic calendar, keeps investors focused on the release of the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index later in the week. The XAG/USD is trading at $23.65 after hitting a low of $24.27.

The XAG/USD daily chart portrays the grey metal reached a new three-month high at $24.87, but buyers failure to test the $25.00 figure sponsored the current pullback toward $24.65, above the Bollinger-band’s top standard deviation. Further upside is seen above the August 30 high at $25.00, immediately followed by the next supply zone at $25.26, the July 20 high, followed by the May 10 swing high at $25.91.

On the bearish scenario, if Silver’s price drops below the psychological $24.50 area, a test of the 200-day moving average (DMA) at $23.34 is on the cards. The next key demand areas would be the 20-DMA at $23.22, followed by the 50-DMA at $22.79.

Why a hawkish RBA is no longer enough to lift the Australian Dollar
