Silver Pushes Highs

168
Silver broke out a month ago, and some traders may think the metal is ready to run.

The first pattern on today’s chart is last Friday’s last price of 36.93. It was the highest weekly close in 14 years, which may reflect buying pressure.

Second, XAGUSD has made higher lows while remaining trapped below resistance. That ascending triangle is a potentially bullish continuation pattern.

Third, the 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) has remained above the 21-day EMA. Such configurations can be consistent with positive short-term momentum.

Finally, Bollinger Band Width recently dropped to a four-year low. Will that tight price compression give way to expansion?
