FX.co ★ XAG/USD, SILVER

Silver Price Forecast Silver price may test the new record high of $53.77, reached on Tuesday. The 14-day Relative Strength Index remains above 70, indicating overbought conditions. The primary support lies at the nine-day EMA of $50.01. Silver price (XAG/USD) trades around $52.30 per troy ounce during the Asian hours on Wednesday after recovering losses registered in the previous session. The technical analysis of the daily chart timeframe suggests the price of the precious metal moves upwards within an ascending channel pattern, strengthening the bullish bias. The US Dollar Index (DXY), which tracks the Greenback against a basket of currencies, is seen extending the overnight pullback from the vicinity of its highest level since early August, touched last week, and drifts lower for the second straight day. The index slides further below the 99.00 mark during the Asian session on Wednesday and seems poised to decline further. Additionally, the XAG/USD pair remains above the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), indicating that short-term price momentum is stronger. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) is positioned above the 70 level, suggesting that the Silver price is trading within overbought territory and a potential for a downward correction on technical terms. However, macroeconomic factors such as limited supply and strong safe-haven demand could continue to keep the precious metal elevated.

On the upside, the XAG/USD pair may target the new record high of $53.77, which was recorded on October 14, followed by the upper boundary of the ascending channel around $54.30. A break above the channel would strengthen the bullish bias and lead the Silver price to explore the region around the psychological level of $55.00. Silver price may find its initial support at the ascending channel’s lower boundary, aligned with the nine-day EMA of $50.01. A break below this confluence support zone would weaken the short-term price momentum and put downward pressure on the Silver price to navigate the region around the 50-day EMA of $43.93.
