Silver prices dropped on Wednesday, closing the session at $31.97.
Price action suggests ‘double top’ looming, yet pending validation.
Watch key levels: $31.00 psychological support, May 24 high at $30.61, and $30.00 for pattern confirmation.

Silver prices posted modest losses of 0.32% on Wednesday as US Treasury bond yields edged up, downward pressure on precious metals. Therefore, the XAG/USD retreated after hitting a six-day high of $32.29, and as the Asian session began, it traded at $31.97, almost flat.

XAG/USD Price Analysis: Technical outlook

Silver is upward based, but a ‘double top’ chart pattern seems to be forming on the daily chart. Momentum supports buyers, yet they’re losing steam as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is flat near overbought conditions.

For confirmation of a ‘double top,’ the grey metal needs to drop below $30.00 a troy ounce. Nevertheless, on its way there, the XAG/USD needs to clear the $31.00 psychological level, followed by the May 24 high of $30.61, ahead of the $30.00 mark.

If XAG/USD buyers reclaim $32.00, that could pave the way to re-test the year-to-date (YTD) high of $32.51.

EUR/USD recovers further from one-month low set on Friday, eyes mid-1.1800s on weaker USD

The EUR/USD pair is seen building on Friday's late recovery from the 1.1750-1.1740 region, or a nearly one-month trough, and gaining some follow-through positive traction at the start of a new week. The momentum lifts spot prices to the 1.1835 area during the Asian session and is sponsored by a broadly weaker US Dollar.

GBP/USD gathers strength above 1.3500 amid tariff confusion

The GBP/USD pair gains traction to around 1.3520 during the early Asian session on Monday. The US Dollar faces some selling pressure against the Cable as tariff uncertainty lingers. Traders will take more cues from the US Producer Price Index report for January, which will be published later on Friday.

Gold eyes a daily closing above key 61.8% Fibo resistance

Gold is adding over 1% early Monday, after having gained 2% on Friday. The bright metal scales key technical hurdles, as buyers stay strong amid renewed tariffs and economic uncertainty alongside looming US-Iran geopolitical tensions.

Top Crypto Losers: Zcash, Pump.fun, and LayerZero extended losses as Bitcoin loses $65,000

The cryptocurrency market starts the week in panic mode, with altcoins Zcash, Pump.fun, and LayerZero. Bitcoin falls below $65,000 as the US President Donald Trump regroups amid renewed trade policy risks.

Liberation day take two, the tariff machine just changed gears

Let me caveat this from the outset. What we are watching is first-order mechanics, not the grand macro endgame. This is the market’s immediate reflex to a 15% Trump tariff levy dressed up as judicial drama. The Supreme Court blocked Trump tarrif hammer. The White House came back with a scalpel.
