Short Trade Ideas

  • Go short following bearish price action on the H1 time frame immediately upon the next touch of $18.45 or $18.66.
  • Put the stop loss 1 pip above the local swing high.
  • Adjust the stop loss to break even once the trade is 10 cents in profit.
  • Remove 50% of the position as profit when the trade is 10 cents in profit and leave the remainder of the position to run.

Long Trade Idea

  • Go long following bullish price action on the H1 time frame immediately upon the next touch of $18.03.
  • Put the stop loss 1 pip above the local swing high.
  • Adjust the stop loss to break even once the trade is 20 pips in profit.
  • Remove 50% of the position as profit when the trade is 20 pips in profit and leave the remainder of the position to run.

The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.

XAG/USD Analysis

I wrote last Thursday that I remained bullish on Silver especially above $18.67. It seems that level was good at least as the day’s pivotal point as after getting close, the price was not able to breach it or even retest it.

The price is now filling within a consolidating triangle with a new resistance level at $18.45. My support level from last Thursday of $18.03 held to the pip and produced a long trade following the pullback.

The odds seem to still be slightly in favour of higher prices soon, and the first sign of such a bullish movement would be a breakout beyond $18.50. If the price can close above that level for a couple of consecutive hours during the forthcoming Asian session, I would take a bullish bias again.
