Silver Price Forecast – Silver Markets Continue to Build Pressure

New York (Aug 28)  Silver markets have initially pulled back a bit during the course of the trading session on Friday but then turned around to show signs of strength to slam into the $24 level. The $24 level of course is an area that has offered resistance previously, and therefore I think breaking through there would of course be a very bullish sign. That could send this market towards the $25 level. This is a market that has also been forming a bit of an ascending triangle as of late, and therefore I think the silver markets are likely to go looking towards the 50 day EMA.

Now that Jerome Powell has made his Keystone speech at Jackson Hole, it looks as if although there is a certain amount of tapering coming, it appears that it is going to be very slow and measured. That seems to be enough to get the US dollar selling off, so at this point in time silver is starting to show the same proclivity as it does tend to move higher in that environment. With that being the case, think the market will probably go looking to upward levels, but the occasional short-term pullback should continue to come back into play in the meantime.
