Silver prices rallied sharply on Monday, posting gains of more than 4%. At the time of writing, they were at $31.42. The grey metal bounced off daily lows of $30.25, capitalizing on thin liquidity conditions as Wall Street remained closed in observance of Memorial Day.

XAG/USD Price Analysis: Technical outlook

The daily chart suggests that Silver is upward-biased, yet it remains shy of testing the year-to-date (YTD) high of 32.51. Momentum supports buyers, as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains bullish though short of turning overbought.

With that said, the XAG/USD first resistance would be the psychological $32.00 figure. Once cleared, overhead resistance lies with the YTD high, followed by the $33.00 mark.

Conversely, the XAG/USD first support would be the $31.00 figure. Further losses lie below that demand area, like the $30.50 psychological level, followed by the May 23 low of $30.07.

EUR/USD trims gains, back below 1.1800

EUR/USD now loses some upside momentum, returning to the area below the 1.1800 support as the Greenback manages to regain some composure following the SCOTUS-led pullback earlier in the session.

GBP/USD off highs, recedes to the sub-1.3500 area

Following earlier highs north of 1.3500 the figure, GBP/USD now faces some renewed downside pressure, revisiting the 1.3490 zone as the US Dollar manages to regain some upside impulse in the latter part of the NA session on Friday.

Gold climbs to weekly tops, approaches $5,100/oz

Gold keeps the bid tone well in place at the end of the week, now hitting fresh weekly highs and retargeting the key $5,100 mark per troy ounce. The move higher in the yellow metal comes in response to ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and modest losses in the US Dollar.
