Silver(Sl1!) closed at $15.59 from an opening price of $14.92 for a gain of $0.67(+4.49%) today. Price also closed just above the orange downtrend resistance line which is bullish seeing as how this line has been acting as resistance since early April. Going forward, we need to see price hold above the orange resistance line and make an eventual push above the horizontal red line at $16.30 which is a strong price level stretching back to July 2019 where price peaked and then eventually rose above, and then found support at again in late 2019. This level briefly acted as support in February 2020, but then failed in March with a rejection at that level coming in again in April. A move above $16.30 would be significant and likely mark the beginning of a new push back up toward $19. The stop-loss level for long trades rests at $14.50 which is near the low made in mid-April, as long as price remains above that level the short-term trend will remain bullish.
The Relative Strength Index(RSI) show the green RSI line rising up off of the 50 level which is the midpoint of the total RSI range. An RSI reading above 50 indicates bullish price momentum while a reading below 50 indicates bearish price momentum. The purple RSI signal line is also rising, but remains below the 50 level with a cross above looking to come soon. The signal line indicates intermediate-term momentum so that line rising above the 50 level would be another bullish indication that price is gaining upward momentum.
The Price Percent Oscillator(PPO) show the green PPO line and purple signal line overlapping at the 0 level. In general, you want to see the green line rising above the purple line and for both lines to be trending up and above the 0 level. Both lines trending up above the 0 level indicates bullish price momentum.
The Average Directional Movement Index(ADX) show the green direction line trending above the purple direction line which indicates a positive trend in price. The histogram behind the ADX lines is trending flat which indicates no strength in the trend yet. In general during an uptrend, you want to see the green line rising above the purple line and for the histogram bars to be rising as a sign that the trend is increasing in strength.
Volume is relatively low, but beginning to show a slight uptick. Should price continue higher we would want to see volume rise in order to sustain the movement in price to the upside.
Overall, silver is looking good here today with the strong move in gold. The gold-to-silver ratio remains near all-time highs at 112:1, meaning it takes 112 ounces of silver to equal ounce of gold in price. Historically, a ratio of 80:1 is considered high and a good time to enter silver trades. The historical average over the past 5,000 years is a ratio of 15:1, so we’re either looking at gold price being extremely overvalued, or silver being extremely undervalued. It’s my opinion that both are still very undervalued with silver being the more extreme of the two. As gold continues to gain in price I expect silver begin to close that ratio and outperform gold as silver usually does during periods of bullish trends in the precious metals space.
