Silver faces very heavy overhead resistance from $18 all the way to $21 which means that it is going to be tough going and take significant effort for Silver to reach let alone breach $21. Whilst there is strong support at $16 and $14.5 (ignoring the crash low of $11.64).

Therefore as was the case in January the long-term chart continues to warn to expect Silver to mark time before it manages to break above it's 2019 high of $19.75 to target a trend towards $21 that it may fail to reach during 2020.

Trend Analysis

This chart illustrates that Silver tends to spend more time drifting lower / sideways then trending higher. So expect short sharp rallies punctuated by periods of drift. Which is where we appear to be finding ourselves after the failure of Silver to clear $19 at the start of the year, greatly under performing the Gold Price. Whilst I am ignoring the March crash low because Silver is prone to making false signals, thus the break below $14.30 was a false break lower.

The SIlver price is currently trending higher towards resistance at $19, and then $20. The odds of Silver clearing resistance does not look good. Whilst it may well assault on $20, I think a trend lower to stay in the $19 to $16.5 zone is more probable than a break higher.

MACD - MACD has unwound its oversold state, so Silver looks primed for a significant correction that could take silver into the $14.5 to $16.5 support zone.

Elliott Waves - The rally off the March low looks corrective i.e. multiple ABC patterns can be observed, if so then the current rally should terminate before Silver gets to $20, so quite soon which then i
