XAG/USD Price Analysis: Technical outlook
Silver is testing the weekly high reached on Thursday at $82.13, but so far has failed to clear it. Momentum remains bullish, as indicated by the Relative Strength Index (RSI), but they must clear key overhead resistance.
On the upside, the first key resistance is $80.50. Once cleared, the next areas of interest become the $81.00 figure, followed by the May 7 peak at $82.13. If those two areas are hurdled, the next stop would be the April 17 swing high at $83.05.
Downwards, the first support is the 100-day SMA at $80.01. A daily close below the latter opens the door for a pullback towards the 50-day SMA at $77.19, ahead of the 20-day SMA at $76.44.
