Silver Price Analysis: XAG/USD struggles to reclaim ground, and turns bearish below the 200-DMA

  • Silver price sees a minor gain of 0.50% but fails to reclaim the May 26 daily low, resulting in a bearish outlook.
  • The technical analysis shows support at the March 21 daily low of $22.14; breaking this could see a drop below the $22.00 figure.
  • Potential resistance lies at the May 26 low-turned resistance at $22.68, with the 200-day EMA at $22.94 and $23.00 as the next challenges.

Silver price remains firm in the session but could not reclaim the May 26 daily low; previous support turned resistance and also below the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA). Therefore, the XAG/USD turned bearish from a technical perspective. The XAG/USD is trading at $22.32, a gain of 0.50%.

XAG/USD Price Analysis: Technical outlook

Silver is downward biased but must break support at the March 21 daily low of $22.14 on its way toward dropping below the $22.00 figure. Even though the XAG/USD fell to a new three-month high, cheered by sellers, the XAG/USD could remain trading sideways, within the $22.10/$22.69 area without a catalyst.

If XAG/USD slumps below $22.00, the next support will lie at the March 16 low of $21.46 before exposing the $21.00 figure and the November 28 daily low at $20.87. On the flip side, the XAG/USD stays above $22.00. The next resistance would be the May 26 low-turned resistance at $22.68, followed by the 200-day EMA at $22.94 ahead of challenging $23.00.

From an oscillator point of view, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) shows signs of bearishness, while the three-day Rate of Change (RoC) portrays sellers losing some momentum but remaining in charge.

EUR/USD looks consolidative around 1.1460

EUR/USD stages a modest rebound after slipping to a three-month low below 1.1420 at the end of the week.

Gold slips back to six-day lows, targets $4,100

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.
