XAGUSD - Bearish EngulfingXAGUSD (SILVER) has formed a bearish engulfing pattern on the daily time frame.
Price broke strongly out of the upper Bollinger Band after making a fake breakout above the triangle.
Stop loss set above recent highs, take profit set at strong support.
Very similar setup to XAUUSD as XAGUSD are highly correlated to each other.
XAG/USD faces significant resistanceFollowing a mediate-term decline that ended in early July, XAD/USD started to trade in an ascending channel. Its highest peak was reached on September 8 when the pair tested a four-month high at 18.18. Subsequently, another pattern—a falling wedge—was formed.
Given the narrow range of the latter, it might be assumed that a breakout is likely to occur in the upcoming hours. Descending wedge is generally a bullish pattern that is formed as a minor correction against the overall up-trend. Taking this into account, Silver should push north even before reaching the lower channel boundary.
Technical indicators demonstrate that the rate should remain relatively stable both on daily and weekly time-frames, thus breaching the wedge to the upside. However, the 55-, 100– and 200-hour SMAs must be surpassed to realise the above scenario.
XAG/USD Channel DownThe decision to review the situation on the Silver charts was made due to the alternative it possesses to the safe investment of Japanese Yen, Swiss Franc and Gold.
The metal trades simultaneously in three various channels. On a large and medium scale patterns the metal is trading in ascending channel patterns. However, it might be more relative to day traders that the commodity price is descending in channel down pattern in the short term.
By the end of the week the metal’s price should reach the lower trend line of the most dominant channel near the 16.80 level. However, it faces the support of the 100-period SMA before reaching that level.
