Silver (XAG/USD) builds on this week's goodish recovery from the $61.00 mark, or its lowest level since December 12, and gains positive traction for the fourth straight day on Wednesday. The white metal climbs to a four-day high during the Asian session, with bulls now looking to extend the momentum further beyond the $74.00 mark.
The aforementioned handle represents a confluence hurdle – comprising the 200-hour Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of the recent decline from the monthly swing high – and should act as a pivotal point. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) line stands above its signal and above the zero line with an expanding positive histogram, suggesting strengthening upside momentum into this resistance band.
Moreover, the Relative Strength Index at 73 signals overbought conditions, which could slow the advance but does not yet negate the bullish tone while the oscillator holds above the 50 midline. Initial resistance is set at the nearby $74.49, followed by $74.57 and then the recent high towards $74.80. A clear break above this confluence would open the way toward the 50.0% retracement at $78.72.
On the downside, immediate support emerges at the $73.70 area, with further backing at the $72.90 zone where the latest consolidation developed, while a deeper pullback could revisit the $71.30 region above the $69.25 Fibonacci 23.6% retracement, where buyers would be expected to defend the broader recovery structure.

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.
