SLV poised for breakout to 19-21 levelSLV has met resistance at the 200 week moving average (16.23) but may be headed for a move higher if a proposed Elliot Wave count plays out. After a big move down, approximately 35 points, SLV appears to made a leg higher followed by support above the previous major low. This could indicate wave 2 of an Elliot Wave move. The current wave 3 move appears to be entering wave 2 of 3. A breakout above the 16.25 level could result in a wave 3 of a larger wave three move, generally more powerful. Fib retracements indicate SLV could run to 21, 26, 30, etc.

SIlver Vs Bitcoin wyckoff LogicI find the biggest successes in my investment / long term trades coming from looking at repeating cycles of similar assets coupled with fundamental analysis. Markets typically act with the same logic as explained by Wyckoff - i suggest further reading for those of you who are not familiar with his market hypothesis. I thought i would share this, both because i am fond of both markets but also because of the similarities between the two charts.
Bitcoin enjoyed a fantastic run up in 2013 and we know what happened following - a long painful year period of sell off, followed by a consolidation down to the $200 range, and well, the rest is history - to $20k in the following two years.
Silver experienced a slower but still phenomenal run up mid 2010 - 2011 and has since been trying to find a bottom. looking at the two charts i would say that it is fair to say that there is a similarity between the two. To me, it appears that silver is very much in the accumulation phase and looks like it is starting to show bullish signs.
Silver is a much more mature market and typically will move slower, which has both is advantages and disadvantages. I play both markets and am unbiased as a result, but i think that it appears that silver and indeed other commodities/precious metals look good to go to enter the mark up phase after a long markdown / accumulation time.
We shall see.

DJI - Dow Jones looking very much like a top.I'm not in the business of calling tops, however as a TA technician, I'm inclined to take my shots based on chart analysis. The current setup in Silver maybe the most telling that a prolonged decline in equities are upon us.
Not calling for a crash, perhaps more of a gradual decline.
