- Silver struggles to capitalize on the overnight move-up and ticks lower on Wednesday.
- The setup favors bulls and supports prospects for the emergence of some dip-buying.
- A convincing break and acceptance below $33.00 would negate the positive outlook.
Silver (XAG/USD) attracts some sellers during the Asian session on Wednesday and erodes a part of the previous day's strong move up. The white metal currently trades around the $33.65-$33.60 area, down 0.30% for the day, though the downside seems limited on the back of a bullish technical setup.
The XAG/USD last week showed some resilience below the $33.00 mark and the 100-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) on the 4-hour chart. The subsequent move-up and positive oscillators on the daily chart validate the positive outlook. Hence, any further intraday slide could be seen as a buying opportunity and remain limited near the said handle.
A convincing break below, however, might prompt some technical selling and drag the XAG/USD further below last week's low, around the $32.65 region, towards testing the $32.00 round figure. This is followed by supports near the $31.80 zone (March 11 low), which if broken might shift the bias in favor of bears and expose the monthly low, around the $31.10 area.
On the flip side, bulls might now wait for a move beyond the $33.80 area, or the weekly high touched earlier this Wednesday, before placing fresh bets. The XAG/USD might then reclaim the $34.00 mark and climb further to a multi-month top, around the $34.20-$34.25 region touched on March 18, en route to a multi-year peak, around the $34.85 zone touched in October.
