Silver Price Forecast: XAG/USD keeps the bullish vibe above $31.50

update 2025.02.26 13:20

  • Silver price edges higher to near $31.75 in Wednesday's Asian session, adding 0.35% on the day. 
  • The positive view of Silver prevails above the key 100-day EMA with the bullish RSI indicator. 
  • The immediate resistance level emerges at $33.00; the first downside target to watch is 31.25.

Silver price (XAG/USD) attracts some buyers to around $31.75, snapping the three-day losing streak during the Asian trading hours on Wednesday. The uncertainty and worries about US President Donald Trump's tariffs boost the Silver price, a safe-haven asset. 

Technically, the bullish trend of Silver remains in place as the commodity is well-supported above the key 100-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) on the daily chart. However, further consolidation cannot be ruled out as the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) hovers around the midline near 50.0, displaying a neutral momentum in the near term. 

The first upside target for white metal emerges at $33.00, representing the psychological level and the upper boundary of the Bollinger Band. Any follow-through buying above this level could pave the way to $33.40, the high of February 14. Further north, the next hurdle to watch is 34.55, the high of October 29, 2024. 

On the flip side, the initial support level for Silver price is seen at 31.25, the lower limit of the Bollinger Band. Sustained trading below the mentioned level could see a drop to the key contention level at $31.00, the round mark and the 100-day EMA. The additional downside filter to watch is $29.70, the low of January 27.

Silver FAQs

Silver is a precious metal highly traded among investors. It has been historically used as a store of value and a medium of exchange. Although less popular than Gold, traders may turn to Silver to diversify their investment portfolio, for its intrinsic value or as a potential hedge during high-inflation periods. Investors can buy physical Silver, in coins or in bars, or trade it through vehicles such as Exchange Traded Funds, which track its price on international markets.

Silver prices can move due to a wide range of factors. Geopolitical instability or fears of a deep recession can make Silver price escalate due to its safe-haven status, although to a lesser extent than Gold's. As a yieldless asset, Silver tends to rise with lower interest rates. Its moves also depend on how the US Dollar (USD) behaves as the asset is priced in dollars (XAG/USD). A strong Dollar tends to keep the price of Silver at bay, whereas a weaker Dollar is likely to propel prices up. Other factors such as investment demand, mining supply - Silver is much more abundant than Gold - and recycling rates can also affect prices.

Silver is widely used in industry, particularly in sectors such as electronics or solar energy, as it has one of the highest electric conductivity of all metals - more than Copper and Gold. A surge in demand can increase prices, while a decline tends to lower them. Dynamics in the US, Chinese and Indian economies can also contribute to price swings: for the US and particularly China, their big industrial sectors use Silver in various processes; in India, consumers' demand for the precious metal for jewellery also plays a key role in setting prices.

Silver prices tend to follow Gold's moves. When Gold prices rise, Silver typically follows suit, as their status as safe-haven assets is similar. The Gold/Silver ratio, which shows the number of ounces of Silver needed to equal the value of one ounce of Gold, may help to determine the relative valuation between both metals. Some investors may consider a high ratio as an indicator that Silver is undervalued, or Gold is overvalued. On the contrary, a low ratio might suggest that Gold is undervalued relative to Silver.
