FxWirePro: XAG/USD breaks below support at 19.527, bearish momentum confirms sustenance below – One Touch Binary Puts to speculate

Technical Inference:

Silver prices have broken the strong support below at 19.527 levels (see intraday charts) but bulls are very much active ahead of ECB’s action tomorrow.

Subsequently, upon the sustenance below would be a more bearish environment in silver prices, otherwise bouncing back will have equal chances.

A sharp “Gravestone Doji” pattern has occurred at peaks of 20.248 levels to signify the weakness and as a result, it’s been evidencing bearish effects.

While stochastic curves have also been converging to the price declines as there is a clear %D crossover right from overbought territory that signifies the intensity of the bearish momentum.

The current prices have slid below DMAs, which is a good sign for bears.
