Silver (XAGUSD) Price Analysis: Technical outlook

The Silver rally stalled at around the 200-day EMA at $21.48, in the last couple of days, with Wednesday’s price action set to form a doji, meaning that buyers could be refraining from testing higher prices, with the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) report for October, right around the corner. It should be noted that if XAGUSD tumbles below $21.00, a fall toward this week’s low at $20.38 is on the cards,

Short term, the XAGUSD appears to be forming a top at around $21.40-60. The Relative Strength Index (RSI), at bearish territory with a downslope, suggests some selling pressure piling, but a break below the confluence of Wednesday’s low and the daily pivot point at $21.16 would exacerbate a test of the psychological $21.00.

XAGUSD key resistance levels lie at $21.60, followed by the R1 daily pivot at $21.82 and the $22.00 mark.
