Silver markets go back and forth during the week

Silver weekly chart, May 28, 2018

The Silver markets went back and forth during the week, essentially going nowhere. Ultimately, the market continues to hover around the $16.50 level, and it seems as if we continue to give moves ranging $0.50 at a time.

Silver markets continue to go back and forth during the week, as we see the $16.50 level offer a bit of a fulcrum for price. I think that the market is essentially trying to build some type a basing pattern, so it is possible that we will eventually see an impulsive move to the upside. I think there is plenty of support underneath down at the $16.50 level, and then even the $15.50 level after that. I think that the market will continue to find buyers on dips, and eventually we could break out to the upside. I think that the market will eventually find reasons to go long, and I think that value hunters will continue to test this market.

It’s not until we break down below the $15.50 level that I would consider shorting this market, and even then I think it would be very difficult to do so. This is a market that I tend to invest in longer-term, and I think what we are doing right now is offering value for those willing to pick up silver in little bits and pieces and add to a longer-term core position. This is why I like physical silver, but I do recognize that short-term traders may be able to go back and forth with an upward proclivity and the futures markets, or even the CFD market. Ultimately, this is a market that I think has a lot of support underneath, so then it’s likely that we will continue to find buyers.
