Silver markets have rallied significantly during the trading session on Thursday, to reach towards the $16.60 level. This is an area that is resistive as it was the reason high, so it will be interesting to see how the market reacts to this level of the next several days.

Silver daily chart, May 25, 2018

Silver markets rallied significantly during the trading session on Thursday, reaching towards the vital $16.60 level. The market breaking above that level would be very bullish, but I think that we will probably see some type of short-term pullback before that happens. We have gotten a bit ahead of ourselves, so I think that the market probably needs to pullback to build up the necessary momentum. I think that the $16.50 level underneath is support, and of course the short-term uptrend line that you can see on the hourly chart. Because of this, I continue to like buying silver on short-term pullbacks, but recognize it is a short-term base type of marketplace.

Ultimately, I think that if you have the ability to trade short-term charts, pullbacks are opportunities that you can take advantage of. Otherwise, buying physical silver on dips to hang onto for investments is also a very fair way to play this market, as we have massive amounts of support underneath. The $16 level begins a massive support zone down to the $15.50 level underneath, which is a major support level for the market on longer-term charts, and I think that we will remain above there. If we were to break down below the $15.50 level, that would be very impressive by the sellers, albeit very unlikely to happen anytime soon. I continue to buy dips and take advantage of value in this market every time he gets offered.
