Silver & other commodities have more downside, SILVER TO $16.00!Commodities are feeling the downside pressure due to the strong US dollar, there is money flowing out safe-haven assets into the equity market since it's been climbing to all-time highs.
Silver forms a very interesting pattern and has been doing so since the start of September when it fell drastically from the strong rally. The pattern involves a strong 1-2-day drop then consolidation, slight pop into the broken support now resistance then another stern drop forming a downward channel for the past 3-4 months.
We expect the continuation, a slight slow pop on weak volume into $17.45 resistance based on the broken low and top of the channel then strong drop through $16.75 into $16.00 potentially.

Silver Losing Momentum In silver, we had a strong move upwards from the $17/oz range to a high of roughly $19.755/oz. Recently, however, the price has failed to maintain momentum to regain those highs and has steadily pushed lower in an evident regression trend on the daily chart from 05 Sep 2019 to the present. I believe that silver will retest the $17/oz range, and from there, we will have a stronger confirmation on the short term direction of silver's price. As well the gold to silver ratio rebounded from a yearly low of roughly 1XAU:79.38XAG to currently 1XAU:84.89XAG. In the meantime, I believe silver to be a short trade. However, in the long run, silver seems to be bullish as the gold to silver ratio is at historical peak levels.
Silver Poised For A Mega MoveAt the time of publishing this research report, Gold is trading at $1488 and silver is at $17.50. Gold dropped more than 1% on Friday which makes the prices plunged from $1510 to $1480($30 move). The Donald J.trump tweet on Friday had a significant impact on the market in which he showed optimism ahead of his meeting with Chinese Vice Premier Liu He at the White House on Friday afternoon.
Please, note-Our Trading position for gold and silver is active in our portfolio.
Trump tweeted: “Good things are happening at China Trade Talk Meeting. Warmer feelings than in the recent past, more like the Old Days. I will be meeting with the Vice Premier today. All would like to see something significant happen!”
The announcement of a possible partial trade deal between the U.S. and China boosted investors' risk appetite which drove the stock market higher and pressured precious metals complex.
The Interest rate cuts has played a major role in the steep incline which we have witnessed in the precious metals complex however right now markets are pricing in a lesser chance of a rate cut in October, with the latest estimates from the CME FedWatch Tool projecting a 67% chance of a cut versus the 87% chance just a couple of days ago.
Old comments-You need to keep in mind that at the moment it seems that markets have gotten ahead of themselves and pricing in a more than 80% chance of looser U.S. monetary policy however if the fed won't cut rates or even if easing will get delayed then it will turn to be negative for the entire precious metals space.
Britain and the EU have fixed there next meeting on the Brexit deal which also helped to boost investors' risk appetite and brought positivity back into the market.
Old comments-Technical levels to watch out for, Advises and recommendation from Goldsilveranalyst
Although we understand all the factors mentioned which are supporting the price of Gold are still there including continuous fall in yields, geopolitical risks, fears of the industrial economy and notions of Quantitative easing coming from the major central banks of the world but despite the bullish momentum which we are witnessing,we have doubts about the sustainability of Gold's surge. Prices moved up substantially, and even though gold prices can reach $1585, we believe investors should lock in some profit at these levels.
Gold has had a great run over the last year, up 17%. It has been a perfect storm of sorts for Gold , especially on the interest-rate front. With long-term interest rates declining globally, Gold has been an attractive alternative to debt,"
Gold is an excellent alternative to any risk, including economic instability and geopolitical tensions. However, at these levels, Gold is just too expensive. The two metals we recommend considering right now are platinum and silver . Both are historically quite cheap versus Gold , and in our opinion, may offer more upside potential should gold keep grinding higher,".
"The price of platinum has mostly traded above the price of Gold , but that is not the case today. For those looking for an alternative to Gold , we recommend consideration of platinum and silver ,"
Summary-our macro research report suggests that the room for the equity market and the DXY to move higher from the level they are currently at- still exist,investors needs to be aware and cautioned what media is portraying and should research the market on there own,or should take the advise by the seasoned analysts however there shouldn't be any conflict of interest involved with in the advise itself. Even though the possibility for the equity market to grow even higher still exist we recommend investors to stay away from the stock indices as the reward doesn't worth the risk in itself. Our independent bias towards the precious metals complex remains bearish until gold breaks above $1,525 an ounce as breaking above would support more investors and traders to long gold with heavy conviction. Until that happens our bearish conviction will remain within the precious metal sector.
Data to watch
Next week’s biggest data release will be the U.S. retail sales on Wednesday, which are estimated to come in at 0.3% in September. The U.S. Beige book is also scheduled for publication on Wednesday.

Other key data sets to watch include the NY Empire State manufacturing index out on Tuesday and Thursday’s slate of numbers such as U.S. housing data, industrial production, and the Philly Fed manufacturing index.
Elliott Wave View: Has Silver Started the Next Leg HigherShort term Elliott Wave view suggests the rally in Silver (XAGUSD) to 17.79 ended wave (1) as a 5 waves impulse. The pullback to 17.24 in the metal ended wave (2) with the internal as a double zigzag. Down from 17.79, wave W ended at 17.27, wave X bounce ended at 17.64, and wave Y ended at 17.24. The metal has broken above wave (1) and resumed higher within wave (3).
Up from 17.24, wave ((i)) ended at 17.48, wave ((ii)) pullback ended at 17.31, wave ((iii)) ended at 17.8, and wave ((iv)) ended at 17.80, above from there it ended wave ((v)) of 1 at 18. Expect the metal to pullback in wave 2 of (3) in 3, 7, or 11 swing before the rally resumes. We don’t like selling Silver. As far as pivot at 17.24 low stays intact in the dips, expect the metal to extend higher.
Silver SLV XAG - Silver's up! Buy the dip. Buy physical silver!Silver looking good. Gold looking good. Bitcoin looking good. Litecoin looking good. I'm bullish on all of them.
I'd be stocking up on all of these, and get the real thing. Get the physical metal that you can hold in your possession. For cryptocurrency make sure you have your private keys.
SLV XAG Silver - Stop loss update, long the dipI'm playing silver in a bullish macro trend, so I'm still long. However we could see a significant pullback, shaking out weak hands and traders before a higher high. Short traders could be right depending on the degree of retracement.
However I'm not looking to short. I'm looking to long the pullback.
SILVERFirst a perfect reaction of the .382 swing high to swing low and now a rejection of the 618. Levels to watch are a possible triangle trendline but buying that trendline would be to risky. Better buy would breakout of the downtrend triangle with a retest. If we get back to the 382 at 17.4 we could either have a V-shape reaction or we could smash through, that would mean short the retest of the 382 with a target at 16.1 the 618 fib.

Is SILVER run over? It appears that we are still in a massive bear channel and this was a bear market rally. Both TVC:GOLD and TVC:SILVER appear to be overbought. Silver is showing a massive weekly shooting star. Might see another leg up (within the channel)but then a decline to find another bottom. Looks like it got all the FOMOs out there. Unless we break out of this bear channel staying bearish.
Silver Looks Friggin BullishHello Traders,
There has been a lot of talk about the precious metals recently (Gold / Silver) with many different reasons for the resurgent interest in precious metals ranging from the classic "store of value" to "finite resource" to "growing lack of trust in fiat currencies".
From a Fundamental Analysis point of view I don't really know anything about Silver apart from the basics so if you are reading this and know your stuff about Silver please put it in the comment section.
This chart is from a TA perspective.
Since the beginning of 2002 the price of Silver went on a bull run which peaked in April 2011. That run lasted about 10 years with gains in the region of 1125%. Very nice if you were long on Silver. From an Elliot Wave perspective the price printed a nice set of bullish impulse waves.
Then over the course of the next 4.5 to 5 years the price retraced to the 0.786 Fibonacci level, pretty much to the wick. WickHunter loves it when the market obeys Fibonacci. This entire move looks like a massive Wave 1 and Wave 2 has been completed and price is gearing up for a wave 3.
"If" this is the case and tbh that's exactly what it looks like, then Silver could go to the moon here.
I've used the Fibonacci extension tool on that wave 1/2 and plotted the 1.618, 2.618, 3.618 and 4.236 extensions as targets.
Nobody knows which of the targets will be hit, only time will tell.

Elliott Wave View: How High Can Silver Go?Since forming the low on November 2018 at $13.9, Silver has rallied 40% to current price of $19.4. The move higher from $13.9 low took the form of a 5 waves impulsive Elliott Wave structure. On the 1 hour chart below, we can see wave (4) pullback ended at $16.92. The metal has since resumed higher in wave (5) with subdivision as another impulse in lesser degree. Up from $16.92, wave 1 ended at $18.65 and wave 2 ended at $18.02.
Near term, while dips stay above $18.02, Silver should continue to see more upside. We don’t like selling Silver and expect buyers to appear to buy the dips in 3, 7, or 11 swing. This view is valid as far as pivot at $18.02 low stays intact in the first degree. Possible target to the upside is 2.618% Fibonacci extension from Nov 2018 low which comes at $20.2 – $20.3 area. This is likely going to end only wave ((3)) in higher degree from Nov 2018 low, so it won’t end the entire rally yet. After it reaches the target of $20.2 – $20.3, Silver has chance to do a larger pullback to around $18 – $19 in wave ((4)) before another leg higher to end 5 waves up from November 2018 low.
Silver Cup and Handle - $90.00 USD Target?Silver has a clear cup and handle formation present (and looking to be resolving) on the monthly chart.
Given the price action in silver recently (check out my earlier analysis which predicted this most recent surge as well as the move up in gold in July) it is worth looking at the longer-term trajectory for silver to determine whether we should be selling, buying or staying on the sidelines.
It is worth noting that pattern analysis is an art, not a science, however it is a fact that the longer the time frame the pattern is observed (e.g. monthly vs. daily patterns) the more validity is tends to have.
The measured move from the base of the cup to the ridge of the cup pattern projects an eventual target of close to $90.00 USD (well north of 300% from present levels)
With this in mind, this pattern will likely resolve over YEARS, not weeks or months, but given the strong tailwind that this could provide for silver and silver associated investments, it is worth considering how you will play (if at all) this market.
Silver impulseSilver hitting resistance here at the low volume node/.618 retrace and 1.618 extension of wave 1. Looking for a 4 wave retrace here, will buy the 3 wave correction and stop under the low. If we end up going deeper its possible this is more bullish as a 12 12, but we can let the action show us that. Its been a while since I have posted ill try to get some more charts out there, interesting times to be a trader!
Elliott Wave View: Silver Remains SupportedShort Term Elliott Wave structure from the chart below suggests the rally in Silver to $17.5 ended wave (3). The metal then pullback in wave (4) to 16.91 with internal structure as a triangle. Triangle is labelled as ABCDE with subdivision of each leg in 3 waves. Triangle is therefore a 3-3-3-3-3 structure. In this case, wave A ended at 16.5, wave B ended at 17.39, wave C ended at 16.83, wave D ended at 17.19, and wave E ended at 16.91. We can also see each leg in the triangle subdivides in another 3 waves.
The metal has resumed higher in wave (5). Up from 16.91, wave 1 ended at 17.77 and wave 2 pullback ended at 17.49. Wave 1 subdivided as a 5 waves impulse structure. Wave ((i)) ended at 17.14 and pullback in wave ((ii)) ended at 16.96. Up from there, wave ((iii)) ended at 17.74, wave ((iv)) ended at 17.55, and wave ((v)) of 1 ended at 17.77. Silver still needs to break above 17.77 to confirm the next leg higher has started and avoid a double correction. We don’t like selling the metal. As far as pivot at 16.91 stays intact, expect Silver to extend higher.
