XAG/USD Price Analysis: Technical outlook
In the medium term, the XAG/USD is set to continue to trend lower after drifting below the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
The XAG/USD would likely continue to trend lower in the medium term after breaching the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA). In addition, the May 26 daily low of $22.68 was surpassed, seen as the latest support before the XAG/USD extended its fall toward the March 16 daily low of $21.47.
Further cementing the bearish case is the Relative Strength Index (RSI), sitting below its neutral line, while the three-day Rate of Change (RoC) shifted negatively, a sign that sellers are in charge.
The XAG/USD first support would be the June 23 swing low of $22.11. A breach of the latter will expose the $22.00 figure, followed by the abovementioned March 16 swing low of $21.47, before dropping towards the $21.00 figure.
If the XAG/USD reclaims the 200-day EMA, the next resistance would ev the $23.00 mark before testing the 20-day EMA at $23.19.
