The silver market has gone back and forth in early trading on Wednesday after we have seen a massive move over the last several weeks. A bit of a breather makes a lot of sense as we stare at $100.
The silver market has gone back and forth in early trading on Wednesday as we still look very bullish, but maybe taking a little bit of a break might be the path forward here. The $100 level is obviously an area that a lot of people will be watching, and I do think that the market will try to do everything it can to reach that level and break above it, but it will take a lot of effort.
That doesn’t mean that it will, and it doesn’t mean that it will be easy even if it does. I would anticipate some type of reaction near the $100 level as many people may have bought silver on the breakout at $50 and are willing to walk away doubling their money or, if they are in the futures market, doing quite a bit more than that.
Short-term pullbacks should see plenty of support at the $90 level, followed by $87, and then eventually $80. If and when we break above the $100 level, we truly are in no man’s land, not that we haven’t been in no man’s land for months, but that would be very interesting.
At this juncture, I think something has to give, but so far it has not, and therefore this is a one-way trade still. I just don’t see how you can short this market. This market could drop $30 and it would still be in a bull market if that puts anything into perspective.
