- XAG/USD jumps nearly 3%, reclaiming 50-day SMA and $63.00.
- RSI crosses above neutral, strengthening the near-term bullish bias.
- Break above $65.00 exposes $68.98 and $70.00 next.
Silver price surges nearly 3% as it clears the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at $62.13, and reclaims the $63.00 figure as it struggles to surpass key resistance seen at $63.28, the July 6 high.
XAG/USD Price Forecast: Technical outlook
Silver trades sideways, but bulls are gaining traction, as indicated by the Relative Strength Index (RSI). The RSI crossed above its 50-neutral level, poised to hit the overbought 70 level, rather sooner than later.
This suggests that the white metal could test higher prices, once it crosses the $65.00 mark. A breach of the latter will expose the 100-day SMA at $68.98, before testing the psychological $70.00 mark. Once cleared, the 200-day SMA becomes the next ceiling level at $71.22.
If XAG/USD retreats below the $63.00, a retracement towards the 50-day SMA is on the cards. On further weakness, Silver could fall towards the $60.00 mark, followed by the August 3 low of $56.57.
