Silver price (XAG/USD) halts its three-day losing streak, trading near $31.80 per troy ounce during the European session on Wednesday. Technical analysis on the daily chart indicates a developing bearish outlook, with the metal trading below the lower boundary of its ascending channel pattern.

Silver price also trades below the nine-day and 14-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), signaling weakened short-term momentum. However, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) has bounced back above the 50 mark, indicating that bullish sentiment remains intact. Upcoming price action will provide clearer insight into the price's directional trend.

To the downside, the XAG/USD pair may find initial support at the psychological level of $31.00. A decisive break below this mark could strengthen the bearish outlook, potentially pushing Silver's price toward the five-month low of $28.74, last seen on December 19.

Silver price could encounter initial resistance at the 14-day EMA around $32.12, followed by the nine-day EMA near $32.19. A move back into the ascending channel pattern would restore the bullish outlook, potentially pushing the pair toward the four-month high of $33.40. A breakout above this level would strengthen the bullish bias, opening the door for the metal price to test the ascending channel's upper boundary near $35.00.
