Silver’s rally continued Wednesday after a softer-than-expected Consumer Price Index (CPI) report in the United States (US) sent US yields tumbling, a tailwind for the precious metal. The XAG/USD trades at $29.73, up by more than 3.80% on the day.
Silver’s price surpassed the $29.00 and $29.50 psychological levels yet remains shy of cracking the year-to-date (YTD) high of $29.79. That left a double top looming, but momentum favors the buyers, as depicted by the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The XAG/USD must clear the YTD high and the $30.00 psychological level for a bullish continuation. A breach of those levels will expose the February 2013 high at $32.15, followed by the October 2012 high at $35.40.
On the other hand, sellers need to drag Silver’s price below the $29.00 figure. In that outcome, the pull back could get to the May 18, 2021, high turned support at $28.75, followed by the $28.00 mark. Further losses lie below the latter, with key support seen at $27.00.
