Silver & other commodities have more downside, SILVER TO $16.00!Commodities are feeling the downside pressure due to the strong US dollar, there is money flowing out safe-haven assets into the equity market since it's been climbing to all-time highs.
Silver forms a very interesting pattern and has been doing so since the start of September when it fell drastically from the strong rally. The pattern involves a strong 1-2-day drop then consolidation, slight pop into the broken support now resistance then another stern drop forming a downward channel for the past 3-4 months.
We expect the continuation, a slight slow pop on weak volume into $17.45 resistance based on the broken low and top of the channel then strong drop through $16.75 into $16.00 potentially.

Silver Losing Momentum In silver, we had a strong move upwards from the $17/oz range to a high of roughly $19.755/oz. Recently, however, the price has failed to maintain momentum to regain those highs and has steadily pushed lower in an evident regression trend on the daily chart from 05 Sep 2019 to the present. I believe that silver will retest the $17/oz range, and from there, we will have a stronger confirmation on the short term direction of silver's price. As well the gold to silver ratio rebounded from a yearly low of roughly 1XAU:79.38XAG to currently 1XAU:84.89XAG. In the meantime, I believe silver to be a short trade. However, in the long run, silver seems to be bullish as the gold to silver ratio is at historical peak levels.
$21 / oz silver by mid year 2020This is a real possibility now that the downtrend for the last month or so is about to break. We are also seeing great weakness in the gold/silver ratio which means we should see silver outperform gold in the coming months. Therefore $21/oz is possible should the gold/silver ratio drop to around 70-77 depending on the price of gold. Watch the breakout.
SLV XAG Silver - Stop loss update, long the dipI'm playing silver in a bullish macro trend, so I'm still long. However we could see a significant pullback, shaking out weak hands and traders before a higher high. Short traders could be right depending on the degree of retracement.
However I'm not looking to short. I'm looking to long the pullback.

Silver stackers should see a bounce shortlyThanks for viewing everyone.
This is typical TA, it might go up or it might go down (and I told you so in either case). But stick around anyway.
After silver's top of almost $50 in 2011 it has made a clearly identifiable ABC formation correction of the intervening 8 years. If you squint just right, you can see the 5 wave wave (C) down too (complete with shallow wave 4 triangle and deep wave 2 correction. Wave 4 does not cross-over any of wave 1 price action (orange box - that also denotes the steepest price change - normally seen in wave 3). Recently there is a bottom forming after a quick rise from $13.700 to over $21 and a slow and steady price drop back to the swing low (low of 13.635 in December 2015). What I tentatively expect is a bounce from that level to around $22 (hopefully higher - very possibly lower).
Retrospective fibonacci targets (to gauge if the correction is complete) are for wave (C) to equal wave (A) at ($13.768) and a 1.618 extension of wave 1 (at $17.032). Both have been met or exceeded. In my view this is a buy zone and I will be buying each month that the price is below $17.
A word of caution; looking back a little ways into the price history (not displayed) pre-1980 to today. Silver rose from a sub-$2 base to exceed $50 in 1980. It then completed an ABC correction down to mid $4 range. This was followed by a weak wave C bounce and then the price slowly sunk lower to bottom at $3.50 in 1992 (10 years later). So, while the count holds up the price still slipped slightly lower in $ terms (more in % terms) before trying to set a new higher high. So, what? So, I am prepared for a potentially very long accumulation phase (last one 20 years) and also a potential price subsidence to below $10 (which will not change my plan). Remember everyone, no weak hands okay. Silver has been seeing increasing industrial demand but has been dropping investment demand.
Why silver? Why not buy on an up-trending asset?
1. Silver is an asset with zero counter-party risk, and is my choice as a hedge against a (more plausible every day) debt crisis,
2. charts never repeat exactly, it could bounce strongly - but I don't expect it to set up for a new bull-run just yet,
3. The gold to silver ratio is indicative of silver being undervalued on a relative basis (hopefully when the GSR normalises to below 40 I will trade silver for gold - silver is my vehicle to acquire more gold,
4. If there is a currency / inflationary crisis, there will be little warning and I want to be in at the bottom for the next move up,
5. Silver is money,
6. COT commitment of traders reports show commercial traders reducing short positions significantly,
7. Commercial banks have created the worlds largest ever silver stockpiles - removing supply from the market.
Asset allocation: 50% fixed income instruments, 30% low PE ratio (low debt, high return, recession resistant) stocks, 5% diversified commodity ETF (at a 30 year low), 7.5% silver, 2.5% gold, and 5% crypto.
While I am here, I would like to plug bullionstar dot com in Singapore. They have low premiums, cheap vault storage of 0.59%pa (silver - lower for gold). E.g. A Johnson Matthey 100oz silver bar (as at right now- prices change per minute) is USD1545.05 for a low volume purchase on 1-9 bars (cheaper than one US based site I just checked at USD1575) and zero sales tax on bullion. I will likely choose their 1kg zero spread bar (at low volumes it has a spread but it is lower than normal) and possibly small nibbles from their bullion savings program BSP where I can buy as little as 1g at a time. I just thought I would pass than on because it took me a long time and searching multiple countries to find silver at a reasonable price.
Gold / Silver Ratio PredictionExpect the gold/silver ratio to leap higher as silver underperforms Gold. Gold will rally but silver will remain muted, at least for a while. Then as the Gold/Silver ratio hits resistance at around 100 a clear buying opportunity for silver will emerge. Gold should rally as the Gold/Silver ratio collapses and therefore Silver is a screaming buy at these levels. Inflation picking up will be the key for silver and the gold/silver ratio collapsing. The Fed will lower interest rates, attempt new rounds of Qe to avoid a recession, but unfortunately all they will achieve will be inflation. Follow the breakdown of the ratio as it hits the upward resistance line, then it'll be off to the races for the pm bull market.
Elliott Wave View: Silver Extending LowerShort term Elliott Wave view on Silver (XAGUSD) suggests that the decline from February 21, 2019 ($16.21) is incomplete. Structure of the decline from $16.21 is unfolding as a zigzag Elliott Wave structure. Wave B of this zigzag structure ended at $15.63. Wave C lower has started and should subdivide in 5 waves. Down from $15.63, wave ((i)) ended at $14.88 and wave ((ii)) ended at $15.34. The internal of wave ((i)) subdivides as 5 waves of lesser degree. Wave (i) of ((i)) ended at $15.35 and bounce to $15.58 ended wave (ii) of ((i)). The metal then turned lower in wave (iii) of ((i)) and ended at $14.95. Wave (iv) of ((i)) ended at $15.16 and wave (v) of ((i)) ended at $14.88.
Bounce in wave ((ii)) unfolded as a zigzag Elliott Wave structure in lesser degree. Wave (a) of ((ii)) ended at $15.8, wave (b) of ((ii)) ended at $15.08, and wave (c) of ((ii)) ended at $15.34. Silver has since resumed lower and broken below wave ((i)) at $14.88, suggesting the next leg lower has started. We don’t like buying the bounce and expect bounce should find sellers in 3, 7, or 11 swing as far as pivot at $15.34 stays intact
Silver is almost ready for take offWhile gold has been rallying, silver has been silently consolidating getting ready for lift off....
Last daily candle close was a bullish engulfing, which makes me confident to long any retrace down to 14.650 region, stop loss below bullish engulfing candles low....
free fall may start soonHaving a good idea, beforehand, where the buy and sell stops are located can give an active trader a better idea regarding at what price level buying or selling pressure will become intensified in that market.

Silver Analysis Welcome Back!
Today I wanted to take a look at silver to find the next area of accumulation.
Taking a look at the monthly, silver has been retracing for the last 5 years and it doesnt look like its quite done yet.
Prices recently broke out of a descending traingle, indicating further bearish continuation.
However, 3 waves are often short lived so the best thing to do is buy support.(Genius I know)
My buy zone is going to be the $8-$10
God Bless,
