XAG/USD Price Analysis: Technical outlook

Despite retreating, the XAG/USD is still upward biased, supported by the 50-day moving average (DMA) at $30.12, a level pierced during Wednesday’s session as Silver hit a daily low at $30.05.

From a momentum standpoint, sellers are gathering traction, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) aiming lower yet remaining in bullish territory.

XAG/USD must clear the 50-DMA for a bearish continuation, followed by the $30.00 mark. If those two levels are surpassed, the next support would be the June 26 swing low of $28.57. On further weakness, Silver could fall to $28.00
