  • RES 2: $40.000 - Psychological round number
  • RES 1: $39.655 - 1.500 proj of the Apr 7 - 25 - May 15 swing

  • SUP 3: $33.940 - 50.0% retracement of the Apr 7 - Jul 23 bull leg  
  • SUP 4: $32.958 - Low Jun 2

Trend signals in Silver are unchanged and remain bullish. Prices have recently recovered off support around the 50-day EMA, now at $37.334. A clear break of the average is needed to strengthen a short-term bearish threat and allow for a deeper retracement. This would open $35.285, the Jun 24 low. For bulls, the latest resumption of gains opens the next objective at $39.655 a Fibonacci projection.

  • SUP 3: 0.6373 Low Jun 23 and a bear trigger  
  • SUP 4: 0.6357 Low May 12

Last week’s fresh trend highs in AUDUSD reinforce bullish conditions and the latest pullback is considered corrective. Gains have resulted in a print above key short-term resistance at 0.6595, the Jul 11 high and bull trigger. This marks a resumption of the uptrend and sights are on 0.6688, the Nov 7’ 24 high. Support to watch is at the 50-day EMA, at 0.6505. A clear break of this EMA would highlight a stronger reversal.

  • RES 3: 92.74 61.8% retracement of the Jul 1 - 18 bear leg     
  • RES 2: 92.42 50.0% retracement of the Jul 1 - 18 bear leg   
  • RES 1: 91.92/92.15 20-day EMA / High Jul 22

  • SUP 2: 90.97 76.4% retracement of the May 22 - Jul 1 bull leg
  • SUP 3: 90.59 Low May 29   
  • SUP 4: 90.46 Low May 23        

Gilt futures have pulled back from the Jul 22 high. For now the contract remains above its recent lows. A rally early last week resulted in a break of the 20-day EMA. A resumption of gains would signal scope for a climb towards 92.42 next, a Fibonacci retracement. On the downside, key support and the bear trigger has been defined at 91.08, the Jul 18 low. Clearance of this level would resume the bear cycle that started Jul 1.
