Highlights

  • Stronger-than-expected US inflation data has increased US Dollar strength and Treasury yields, reducing Silver's relative appeal.

  • Silver trades with a short-term bullish bias and strong intraday momentum, with a projected two to three day range of $52.41 to $53.57.

Investor rotation into US yields weighs on silver sentiment

Stronger-than-expected US inflation data has driven the US Dollar and US Treasury yields higher, shifting the macroeconomic landscape for precious metals, according to FXStreet. These developments make non-yielding assets like Silver comparatively less attractive to investors, as higher yields offer alternative opportunities. Nonetheless, shifting inflation expectations and resulting currency movements are key factors influencing current market positioning in Silver.

Momentum strength persists while overbought signals hint at pullback risk

On the technical front, Silver currently trades above the MA-20 at $51.99 and the MA-50 at $52.5 on the hourly chart, while remaining below the longer-term MA-200 at $65.96. The Ichimoku Kijun at $52.16 acts as immediate support. Momentum indicators are bullish, as both MACD and ADX suggest ongoing upward traction, and Bull/Bear Power stands at 0.59. RSI is in the neutral range, though both Stochastic RSI and CCI have entered overbought territory, highlighting the risk of a short-term pullback. The Awesome Oscillator reinforces the prevailing trend, with prices holding close to session highs.

Sideways trading likely as volatility bands define breakout risk

Over the next 2-3 trading days, Silver is expected to remain within a volatility band of $52.41 to $53.57. Forecast models assign a 74% probability of continued upward movement, though a sideways scenario within this range is the baseline expectation. A breakout above resistance could enable renewed upside momentum, while any decline below immediate support at $52.16 may trigger short-term selling pressure.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees the macroeconomic backdrop as a key driver for Silver’s recent performance. He believes stronger-than-expected US inflation data and higher Treasury yields create headwinds for non-yielding assets. However, bullish momentum signals and resilient price action above short- and medium-term averages support a constructive outlook. The analyst expects Silver to remain supported if current levels hold. "As long as macro drivers persist and technical structure remains firm, I see further upside potential for Silver in the near term."

Earlier, analysts noted that silver faced downside pressure amid expectations of further Federal Reserve tightening, with US monetary policy seen as the main driver of recent market weakness. The latest technical signals and volatility outlook suggest traders should closely monitor the $52.41–$53.57 band for potential breakout or reversal opportunities in the sessions ahead.
