XAG/USD Price Forecast: Technical outlook

Silver price has printed back-to-back bullish days, yet it failed to surpass the $32.00 figure, exposing the grey metal to selling pressure. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) hints that buyers remain in control, but it has turned flat, indicating that consolidation lies ahead.

If XAG/USD clears the October 2 peak of $32.30, it will resume its uptrend and challenge the year-to-date (YTD) high of $32.71. A breach of the latter will push Silver to $33.00 before testing on October 1, 2012, high at $35.40.
