Silver Technical Analysis – 19-July-2024
The robust selling pressure has driven the stochastic oscillator and the relative strength index indicator into the oversold territory. This means the market is saturated from selling, and the price might bounce from the 78.6% Fibonacci at 29.23. Looking ahead, the awesome oscillator value is -0.91, with red bars below the signal line, indicating a bearish primary trend.
The one-hour chart shows Silver below the 50- and 100-period simple moving averages, and the super trend indicator indicates that the XAG/USD is in a bear market.
In conclusion, the technical indicators in the Silver 4-hour chart suggest the downtrend prevails, but the Silver price is oversold, and it might erase some of its recent losses in the short term.
Silver Price Forecast – 19-July-2024
The immediate resistance level that kept the Silver price from dipping further is the 78.6% Fibonacci at $29.23. As explained before, the stochastic oscillator and the RSI are in the oversold territory, indicating the price might pull back from the $29.23 mark. If this scenario comes into play, the XAG/USD price might rise to test the upper resistance level, initially at 61.8% at $29.7.
Furthermore, if the buying pressure exceeds $29.7, the pullback could extend to the %50 Fibonacci at $30.1. Please note that this level is pivotal between the bear and bull markets. If the bulls close above $29.7, the bear market should be invalidated.
Silver Bearish Scenario
The market is oversold; therefore, going short or selling is not advisable. That said, the downtrend will likely resume if the selling pressure dips the price below the %78.6 at $29.23. If this scenario unfolds, the next support level will be $28.5.
Furthermore, if the price falls below $28.5, the sellers’ road to the June 26 low at $28.5 could be paved.
The bear market should be invalidated if the Silver price exceeds $30.1.
