The "hot trades" are collapsing, and retailers appear to be losing their battle against the establishment. A possible "false breakout" in silver could trigger a sharp decline.

In this article:

Silver is under attack, and prices are back below the $27.00 level. Yesterday’s gap higher was closed, and prices are backtesting the intermediate trendline. What happens next is crucial!

  • A close below $26.00 would establish a false breakout and bearish reversal (favorite trick of manipulators). In this scenario, silver could collapse back towards $22.00, possibly lower.
  • To reverse today’s institutional attack, retail traders need to push futures back above $29.00 before Friday.
