Gold has been rallying to new highs recently, and now some traders may think silver can play catch up.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the pair of converging lines this year. Notice how XAGUSD has been pushing against the upper line since Friday. That may be viewed as the start of a breakout.
Second, prices held a peak from late August. Old resistance becoming new support is also consistent with a potential uptrend.
Next, MACD has turned positive. Prices are also near their rising 100-day simple moving average. Those may suggest bullishness in the short- and longer terms.
Speaking of the longer term, the second chart with two-week candles shows the white metal over the last 15 years. Notice how it’s recently consolidated above its 2023 peak and is now challenging resistance from 2020 and 2021. Traders may also notice the long-term peaks near 50 back in 2011. Could there be moves toward those old levels?
