Silver is hovering around the $75.00–$77.00 region, struggling to capitalize on the US Dollar’s softness. Despite the weaker greenback, precious metals remain directionless in a subdued start to the week, with thin liquidity as several Asian markets were closed for Lunar New Year and US markets shut for President’s Day.
XAG/USD is posting modest losses near $77.00, not far from last week’s low around $74.50. Price action has been choppy in recent weeks, but the broader bearish structure from the late-January peak remains intact. Bulls continue to face strong resistance below the key $80.00 psychological barrier, keeping upside attempts contained.
Technical outlook
On the 4-hour chart, silver trades beneath a declining 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA), reinforcing the near-term bearish bias. The MACD histogram remains in negative territory, while the RSI stands near 43 — consistent with neutral-to-bearish momentum.
Initial support lies around $74.40, near last week’s trough, followed by the February 6 low near $64.00. On the upside, immediate resistance is seen at the 50-period SMA around $80.00. A break above that could expose the upper boundary of last week’s range near $86.30, with stronger resistance ahead at the February 4 peak above $92.00.
Overall, silver maintains a cautious, slightly bearish tone unless buyers reclaim the $80.00 level with convincing momentum.
