Silver is losing ground as gold/silver ratio is trying to settle above the 87.00 level. Rising gold/silver ratio served as the key bearish catalyst for silver in December.

From the technical point of view, a move below the $22.75 level will open the way to the test of the support at $22.25 – $22.50.
