At this point in time, the silver price continues to grind higher, as the markets continue to watch the overall trade situation and of course all of the overall noise that traders are trying to overcome. Volatility will continue going forward.
The silver market has rallied a bit during the early hours on Monday, as we are looking at the $33 level, an area that of course has been important more than once. So therefore, I think you need to be very cautious about trying to buy into this resistance barrier. All things being equal, I think you have a situation where traders will watch this market closely, understanding that the US dollar is a major driver of what we’ve seen on the price action here.
And with that, I believe that we have a situation where if we can break above the $33 level, it opens up the possibility of a move to the $35 level. Pullbacks from here are possible, possibly even likely, but I think you have to look at this through the prism of a market that is a little stretched, although it’s most certainly positive. I would not be shorting silver at this point, at least not until the US dollar changes its overall trajectory.
All things being equal, I am a buy on the dip trader when it comes to silver, especially interested in the $32 level. If we can break above the $35 level, then we could see this market really take off, but there’s a lot of work to do. And there’s a lot of volume to chew through between here and there. So, I think this is a scenario where and you are just looking for value and you are taking advantage of it when it appears.
