XAG/USD plummets as Trump’s election strengthens USD

Silver breaks below key support levels, including 50-day SMA at $31.27.

Daily close below $31.00 may lead to further decline toward 100-day SMA at $30.23.

Resistance levels to watch: July 11 high at $31.75 and May 20 peak at $32.51.

Silver price slumped sharply on Wednesday after US President Donald Trump wins the 2024 presidential election. Additionally, the Republican party sweep seems likely as they hold the majority in the Senate, while the House of Representatives is still early to be called. The XAGU/USD trades at $31.16, down over 4.50%.

XAG/USD Price Forecast: Technical outlook

Silver's price uptrend remains in play, even though Trump’s victory boosted the Greenback. Consequently, the XAG/USD tumbled below key support levels, including the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at $31.27, which opened the door to hit a daily low of $30.84.

If XAG/USD achieves a daily close below $31.00, it could trigger a potential slump to the 100-day SMA at $30.23. If surpassed, the next stop would be the $30.00 figure.
