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.
Analysis of SILVER 27.08.2019The price above 200 MA, indicating a growing trend.

Silver FTWTrend line from 2016 is well in tact and looks like this is the beginning of a significant upcycle. PM’s have always had an inverse relationship with equities and I watch the news closely to determine price targets. Trade war with China won’t have news until near end of August. I believe silver (and gold) will continue to rise until any news of resolution. No resolution = more bull.
MEDIUM TERM(XAUXAG): WAVE COUNT|BULLISH TARGETS+STRUCTURAL [TA]Commodity and Fixed Income Series : Part 1 Commodities ( Ratios+the most popular and widely traded Commodities )
The Essential note s from this chart are the following( Indicator analysis included in the comments ): {4.5 minute read}
To begin with the easiest part of the chart. The supports were identified on the quarterly chart which will be linked in the comments. There are 3 main support levels :1. ~80(RED LINE) 2. ~70-66(BLUE LINE) 3. ~58-60(GREEN LINE)
Somewhat more difficult part of the chart are the bullish targets . There are 2 main targets and 1 psychologica l. The 2 main targets were derived based on fibonacci extensions from the quarterly chart #1 ~94, #2 ~110 ; and the obvious psychological target is circa: 100 .
Q: What is the method used to label the Wave count?
-Following the ABC correction(2008-2011), gold has clearly outperformed silver. This is partially because of the new production methods that were introduced after 2012( more cost-effective extraction of silver as a byproduct while mining for other metals). In effect, this boosted the supply of silver relatively to gold; positively affecting the gold-to-silver ratio . Hence, the W-X-Y-X-Z Wave count fits the best into the current chart structure.
Q: Bullish on silver? - Not yet . As it can be observed from the chart, prior to the ABC correction(2008-2011) ; there was a boom in the demand for gold as the primary metal of value used as a protection against inflation . This pattern should occur during the next recession, yielding a potential target for the ratio of around ~110.
Other worthy notes: 2020 Election will have an impact on practically every market; Commodities are no exception . Nevertheless, in the medium term , I am relatively more bullish on silver in comparison to gold . This is supported by continuously downtrending volume as we progress through the bullish channel(pitchfork) . The ABC orange labelled correction is obviously a far fetched idea, since we do not know the timing nor the absolute top for the ratio yet. It's included just for the sake of general market principles.
P.S. I do realize the chart is quite hard to be understood, mostly because it is labelled to the smallest and extreme detail. If there are any poor understandings of the labels, I'd be able to answer any additional questions in the comment s.

H4 LONG TRADE ON SILVER - TREND is your FRIENDQuick summary of how i usually view the markets.
In terms of market movement, i tend to view them as either Ranging or Trending market environments.
- Trending environment means that price has a general direction it is heading based on High Time Frames market structures. BULLISH Market structure refers to higher highs and higher lows, while BEARISH Market structure refers to
lower highs and lower lows.
- Ranging environment means that price usually just oscillates within the range with no clear direction. This is also refer to chopping markets, making it harder to trade since there is no clear trend. Hence, usually i drew up a range and
take trades around the range low / high and trade it to the other side. EG Long range low, targeting range high.
For spotting of trade opportunities, i look to take trades near High Time Frame structure. By refining my entry, stop loss and target based on Low Time Frame structure, i am able to maximize my Risk:Reward ratio of the trade setup by aligning with the Macro trend.
Setup type: H4 Significant Flag
Levels of confluence:
1) Weekly Range Low
2) H4 Demand zone proven itself previously when price dipped into it and rallied to make another higher high (Confirmation of demand)
Silver stackers should see a bounce shortlyThanks for viewing everyone.
This is typical TA, it might go up or it might go down (and I told you so in either case). But stick around anyway.
After silver's top of almost $50 in 2011 it has made a clearly identifiable ABC formation correction of the intervening 8 years. If you squint just right, you can see the 5 wave wave (C) down too (complete with shallow wave 4 triangle and deep wave 2 correction. Wave 4 does not cross-over any of wave 1 price action (orange box - that also denotes the steepest price change - normally seen in wave 3). Recently there is a bottom forming after a quick rise from $13.700 to over $21 and a slow and steady price drop back to the swing low (low of 13.635 in December 2015). What I tentatively expect is a bounce from that level to around $22 (hopefully higher - very possibly lower).
Retrospective fibonacci targets (to gauge if the correction is complete) are for wave (C) to equal wave (A) at ($13.768) and a 1.618 extension of wave 1 (at $17.032). Both have been met or exceeded. In my view this is a buy zone and I will be buying each month that the price is below $17.
A word of caution; looking back a little ways into the price history (not displayed) pre-1980 to today. Silver rose from a sub-$2 base to exceed $50 in 1980. It then completed an ABC correction down to mid $4 range. This was followed by a weak wave C bounce and then the price slowly sunk lower to bottom at $3.50 in 1992 (10 years later). So, while the count holds up the price still slipped slightly lower in $ terms (more in % terms) before trying to set a new higher high. So, what? So, I am prepared for a potentially very long accumulation phase (last one 20 years) and also a potential price subsidence to below $10 (which will not change my plan). Remember everyone, no weak hands okay. Silver has been seeing increasing industrial demand but has been dropping investment demand.
Why silver? Why not buy on an up-trending asset?
1. Silver is an asset with zero counter-party risk, and is my choice as a hedge against a (more plausible every day) debt crisis,
2. charts never repeat exactly, it could bounce strongly - but I don't expect it to set up for a new bull-run just yet,
3. The gold to silver ratio is indicative of silver being undervalued on a relative basis (hopefully when the GSR normalises to below 40 I will trade silver for gold - silver is my vehicle to acquire more gold,
4. If there is a currency / inflationary crisis, there will be little warning and I want to be in at the bottom for the next move up,
5. Silver is money,
6. COT commitment of traders reports show commercial traders reducing short positions significantly,
7. Commercial banks have created the worlds largest ever silver stockpiles - removing supply from the market.
Asset allocation: 50% fixed income instruments, 30% low PE ratio (low debt, high return, recession resistant) stocks, 5% diversified commodity ETF (at a 30 year low), 7.5% silver, 2.5% gold, and 5% crypto.
While I am here, I would like to plug bullionstar dot com in Singapore. They have low premiums, cheap vault storage of 0.59%pa (silver - lower for gold). E.g. A Johnson Matthey 100oz silver bar (as at right now- prices change per minute) is USD1545.05 for a low volume purchase on 1-9 bars (cheaper than one US based site I just checked at USD1575) and zero sales tax on bullion. I will likely choose their 1kg zero spread bar (at low volumes it has a spread but it is lower than normal) and possibly small nibbles from their bullion savings program BSP where I can buy as little as 1g at a time. I just thought I would pass than on because it took me a long time and searching multiple countries to find silver at a reasonable price.
Silver Elliott Wave View: Impulse Move Favoring More UpsideSilver rally from May 28, 2019 low is unfolding as an impulse Elliott wave structure favoring more upside to take place. The near-term pullback to $14.87 low ended wave ((ii)). Up from there, the metal made a strong rally to the upside and ended wave ((iii)) at $16.58 high. The internals of that rally unfolded in lesser degree 5 waves structure where wave (i) ended at $15.31 high. Wave (ii) pullback ended at $15.03 low, wave (iii) ended at $16.46 high. Then pullback to $16.22 low ended wave (iv) and a rally to $16.58 high ended wave (v).
Down from there, the 3 swings pullback to $16.04 low ended wave ((iv)). While above there, wave ((v)) remain in progress looking to extend higher 1 more time before wave 3 ends & pullback in wave 4 takes place in 3, 7 or 11 swings. The minimum extension area for wave ((v)) of 3 i.e inverse 1.236%-1.618% extension area comes at $16.72-$16.93. From where the metal can potentially see a pullback in 3, 7 or 11 swings before more upside can be seen. We don’t like selling the stock & expect intraday buyers to appear in 3, 7 or 11 swings within wave 4 pullback at a later stage. As far as a pivot from $14.88 low stays intact.
