SLV
Silver Gearing Up for Next Leg Higher: Flag Target $19.70Been busy with life lately so my posts have been less often. Nevertheless, I do always keep an eye on the charts and when I spot something that requires a post I deliver. This morning I want to talk about the Silver. Remember when Silver outperformed Gold a few weeks ago? Well based on what I am seeing on the chart that may happen again in the coming week(s)! Let's take a look at the Silver chart.
Bull Flag
The everything rally continues on and next up in the rotation may be Silver (again). Since reaching its breakout peak on May 20th, Silver has been consolidating within on declining volume. The chart below is the 4-hour chart and it shows how price is consolidating above its 20 SMA. Check the strength of the CMF. Money is piling on into Silver.
Further illustrating the point made on the 4-hour chart is the daily chart above. Here notice how price is resting on a combination of 200 SMA and 10 EMA support. CMF also remains positive.
Above is perhaps the most exciting chart of all. If this bull flag is confirmed, the target price is approximately $19.70. Look how the flag target matches perfectly with the high Silver posted on September 4, 2019.
Silver is looking like a smart play heading toward the end of the week. Trade Silver with confidence. Bias: Bullish .
Risk-Off Would Equal a Big Bounce for Gold/Silver RatioWhile we have a $50 target for silver by the end of 2021, we fully expect it to get smacked in risk-off environments given its importance to industrial activity. When investors are optimistic, silver trades like copper; when they're scared, it trades more like gold. It's had a great run here and while we fully expect to see the ratio get back below 80 in time, gold should outperform silver in the very short term.
