Silver Price Analysis: XAG/USD dips below $27.00 after hitting multi-year high

Source Fxstreet
  • Silver pulls back from $27.33 amid geopolitical concerns, market caution.
  • Bullish trend holds, with supports at $25.91, $25.08.
  • Rebound above $27.00 may target recent high, with eyes on $28.00, subject to market shifts.

Silver’s retreats after hitting a two-and-a-half-year high of $27.33 amid growing speculations of geopolitical risks due to Israel’s attack on Iran’s embassy in Syria. That has triggered a late risk-off impulse, which is weighing on the precious metals, including Gold. The XAG/USD is down more than 1% and trades at $26.84.

XAG/USD Price Analysis: Technical outlook

Silver’s remain upward biased as depicted by successive series of higher highs and higher lows, despite retreating as of writing. If sellers would like to regain control, they must drag XAG/USD’s prices toward the December 4 high turned support at $25.91. Once surpassed, the next stop would be the April 2 low at $25.08 before plummeting toward March 27’s low of $24.33.

On the other hand, if buyers push Silver’s spot price above $27.00, look for a re-test of the year-to-date (YTD) high at $27.33 before rallying to $28.00.

Gold breaks $4,000 as oil becomes the inflation problem — $3,943 is the line that mattersSpot gold closed at $3,995.6 on October 23, down about 4.1% for the week and at its lowest since mid-July, and traded near $3,988 on October 26 even as Brent crude settled at $116.72 and Middle East supply risk stayed elevated. The war premium stopped working because oil is now the inflation trade: December Fed hike odds are 68.9% and the 10-year yield is 4.988%. Here are the three numbers, the transmission chain, and the July low at $3,943 that decides whether this is a bottom or a bigger correction.
