Silver Price Analysis: XAG/USD sticks to gains near $24.60-65 area, bearish bias remains

  • Silver gained some positive traction on Tuesday and snapped a three-day losing streak.
  • The mixed technical setup warrants some caution before positioning for any further upside.
  • Sustained move beyond the $25.00 mark is needed to support any near-term positive bias.

Silver built on the overnight bounce from the $24.30-$24.25 region and gained some positive traction on Tuesday, snapping three successive days of the losing streak to a four-day low. The white metal held on to its modest gains through the first half of the European session and was last seen trading around the $24.65-$24.70 zone.

From a technical perspective, the XAG/USD again showed some resilience below the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of the $22.00-$26.95 move up. The subsequent move up supports prospects for additional intraday gains, though neutral technical indicators on the daily chart warrants caution for aggressive bullish traders.

Hence, any further positive move might continue to confront stiff resistance and remain capped near the 38.2% Fibo. level, around the $25.00 psychological mark. A convincing breakthrough of the said handle has the potential to lift the XAG/USD towards the $25.35-$25.40 intermediate hurdle, en-route the 23.6% Fibo., around the $25.75-$25.80 area.

On the flip side, weakness below the mid-$24.00 mark, or the 50% Fibo. level now seems to find some support near the overnight swing low, around the $24.30-$24.25 region. Some follow-through selling would make the XAG/USD vulnerable to accelerating the slide towards retesting sub-$24.00 levels, or the one-month low touched in March.

Editor's Picks

GBP/USD appears well offered near 1.3160

GBP/USD builds on Tuesday’s losses, although it now manages to pick up some pace and bounce off earlier multi-month troughs near 1.3140. The Greenback’s solid performance and continued political turmoil in the UK are keeping Cable under persistent pressure, with little sign of a meaningful recovery.

EUR/USD trims losses, hovers around 1.1350

EUR/USD now regains some composure and rebounds to the 1.1350 zone on Wednesday, partially reversing the prior pullback to fresh yearly lows near 1.1320. Meanwhile, spot remains on the back foot as the US Dollar continues to draw support from hawkish Fed expectations and uncertainty over the outcome of US-Iran peace negotiations.

Gold puts $4,000 to the test, new yearly lows

Gold accelerates its decline and gyrates around the key $4,000 mark per troy ounce on Wednesday, its lowest level since November 2025. In the meantime, tighter-for-longer Fed expectations and a broadly firmer US Dollar continue to weigh on the yellow metal, while uncertainty surrounding a potential US-Iran peace agreement has done little to revive demand for the safe haven space.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP trade under pressure as September Fed rate-hike odds increase

Bitcoin is trading between $62,000 and $63,000 at the time of writing on Wednesday, weighed down by headwinds stemming from macroeconomic uncertainty and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.

5.90% to 5.45%: Why the Pound ignored the bond market’s relief rally

Keir Starmer resigned on Monday, and the Pound barely moved. That near-silence is the tell. Sterling's real driver these past four months has not been the prime minister, nor the left-leaning frontrunner lining up to replace him, but the long end of the gilt curve, which answers to a force no British politician controls.

Regime change: Inside Kevin Warsh's first move to make the Fed unreadable on purpose

The rate did not move. That was the least interesting thing about Kevin Warsh's first meeting in charge of the Fed. The FOMC held its benchmark at 3.50%-3.75% for the fourth straight meeting, exactly as priced, and then the new chair used his first press conference to dismantle the machinery the market has leaned on for a decade.
