Silver price registers modest gains despite rising US Treasury bond yields and a strong US Dollar. The grey metal dipped to $27.00 but climbed as buyers stepped in. The XAG/USD trades at $27.33, up by 0.38%.
Silver remains upward biased, and it remains trading within the 50% and 38.2% Fibonacci retracements, drawn from the latest cycle low and high, each at $24.33 and $29.78, respectively.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is in bullish territory, indicating that momentum favors bulls. However, from a price action standpoint, buyers need to clear the 38.2% Fib retracement at $27.70 to challenge year-to-date (YTD) highs. Once surpassed, the next key resistance level would be the $28.00 psychological figure, followed by the 23.6% Fib retracement at $28.49 ahead of $29.00.
On the flip side, if sellers want to push prices lower, they must drag prices below the 50% Fib retracement at $27.05. Once done, sellers must clear $27.00, followed by the confluence of the May 2 low and the 50-day moving average (DMA) at $26.02/08.
