SLV trade ideas
SLV poised for three-month test of the lowOne pattern I like to follow is a three-period test of the high or low. Should SLV hold this level (15.51) on Wednesday, the end of the month of February, it could be forming the base for a long-term bottom. The intermonth low for December was lower, so price action in March could also fall to test that low (14.74) but the a successful monthly close is a long-term positive. Of note is that there is also a three-week test of the low next week. This is very reminiscent of the Feb 2016 low in SPX, with a weekly and monthly test occurring around the same time. We all know what followed after that.
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.
