    XAG/USD returns above $37.00 with the bearish trend intact

    August 4, 20254 Mins Read


    • Silver bounced up above $37.00, but the bearish structure remains in place.
    • The precious metal is going through a bullish correction, following downbeat US employment data
    • XAG/USD’s bulls are likely to be capped below resistances at $38.00 and $38.50.

    Silver (XAG/USD) is drawing support from a depressed US Dollar and the recent decline in US Treasury yields to regain the $37.00 level, but the immediate trend remains bearish with the recent trend of lower highs and lower lows still intact.

    The precious metal bounced up from multi-week lows at $36.20, as US employment data disappointed, triggering renewed concerns about a recession and boosting hopes that the Fed will be forced to focus on the softer labour market and cut interest rates sooner rather than later.

    Technical analysis: Silver has a key resistance at $38.00

    XAG/USD Daily Chart

    The technical perspective, however, remains little changed. The XAG/USD broke the ascending trendline support last week, putting an end to the bullish cycle from April’s lows.

    The current rebound is seen as corrective. The 4-hour RSI is bouncing up from oversold levels but remains below the 50 line that divides the bearish from the bullish area.  Immediate resistance is at the intraday high of $37.40. A further correction is not discarded, especially if US Factory orders disappoint, but previous support, at $37.95, and broken trendline, now at $38.50, are highly likely to cap bulls.

    To the downside, A bearish move below Friday’s low, at $36.21, would put bears back in control, and shift the focus towards the June 24 and 29 lows, at $35.34, ahead of the early June lows, at $34.40.

    Silver FAQs

    Silver is a precious metal highly traded among investors. It has been historically used as a store of value and a medium of exchange. Although less popular than Gold, traders may turn to Silver to diversify their investment portfolio, for its intrinsic value or as a potential hedge during high-inflation periods. Investors can buy physical Silver, in coins or in bars, or trade it through vehicles such as Exchange Traded Funds, which track its price on international markets.

    Silver prices can move due to a wide range of factors. Geopolitical instability or fears of a deep recession can make Silver price escalate due to its safe-haven status, although to a lesser extent than Gold’s. As a yieldless asset, Silver tends to rise with lower interest rates. Its moves also depend on how the US Dollar (USD) behaves as the asset is priced in dollars (XAG/USD). A strong Dollar tends to keep the price of Silver at bay, whereas a weaker Dollar is likely to propel prices up. Other factors such as investment demand, mining supply – Silver is much more abundant than Gold – and recycling rates can also affect prices.

    Silver is widely used in industry, particularly in sectors such as electronics or solar energy, as it has one of the highest electric conductivity of all metals – more than Copper and Gold. A surge in demand can increase prices, while a decline tends to lower them. Dynamics in the US, Chinese and Indian economies can also contribute to price swings: for the US and particularly China, their big industrial sectors use Silver in various processes; in India, consumers’ demand for the precious metal for jewellery also plays a key role in setting prices.

    Silver prices tend to follow Gold’s moves. When Gold prices rise, Silver typically follows suit, as their status as safe-haven assets is similar. The Gold/Silver ratio, which shows the number of ounces of Silver needed to equal the value of one ounce of Gold, may help to determine the relative valuation between both metals. Some investors may consider a high ratio as an indicator that Silver is undervalued, or Gold is overvalued. On the contrary, a low ratio might suggest that Gold is undervalued relative to Silver.
