Silver Nears Key Resistance as Breakout Setup Forms

Silver is hovering near the $79 level as a tightening triangle formation brings price action to a critical inflection point. After stalling near previous highs, the metal has spent recent sessions coiling within narrowing support and resistance boundaries, signalling that a decisive move may be approaching.

A sustained break above $79 would suggest buyers are regaining control and could open the path toward the $86 region. However, false breakouts remain a risk without strong volume and a confirmed daily close above resistance. On the downside, failure to hold current levels may trigger a pullback toward the $76 zone, with deeper support seen near $72.

Macro conditions remain central to the outlook. Geopolitical tensions have supported safe-haven demand, while gold’s resilience above key levels provides a broader tailwind. Attention now turns to upcoming PCE inflation data, which could influence US yields and dollar strength. Softer inflation may support precious metals, while hotter readings could pressure silver through rising yields.
