Silver Price Forecast for 2026 Based on Technical Analysis

The weekly XAGUSD chart shows a bullish trend. After a strong impulse, a correction began, and now the price is holding below 80.48. According to Fibonacci levels, the nearest bullish targets are 80.87 (0.236), 91.98 (0.382), and 100.01 (0.5). Above these are the extension levels of 109.01 (0.618) and 121.01 (0.786).

The support levels are located at 72.92 and 65.19. The SMA20 has surpassed the 65.28 mark. The price is way above the SMA50 (47.80), suggesting that the long-term uptrend is still strong.

The RSI value is near 60, indicating strong demand with no signs of a significant overbought condition. The increase in the ATR indicator points to increased volatility.

Long-Term Trading Plan for XAGUSD for 2026

The market outlook for the next 12 months is moderately bullish. The long-term uptrend remains intact, but the price is still below the key levels of 80.48 and 80.87, so the market may continue to move sideways.

• Growth scenario. Long trades can be opened once the price exceeds 81.00 (0.236). Bullish targets are 92.00 (0.382) and 100.00 (0.5). If the price consolidates above 100.00, the next targets will be 109.00 (0.618) and 121.00 (0.786).

• Pullback scenario. Long trades can be initiated when the price rebounds from the 73.00 level. Profit targets are at 81.00 and 92.00. An alternative scenario is to open long trades in the 65.20–63.30 zone, near the SMA20. In this case, the profit targets are at 73.00, then to 81.00.

A sell signal will appear if the price falls below 65.00. In this case, the nearest bearish target is 48.00.

If the price forms higher lows, surpasses 81.00, or the RSI value rises above 50, the recovery will be confirmed.

Market Sentiment for XAGUSD (Silver) on Social Media

Media sentiment reflects the expectations and mood of market participants on social media. This can directly influence liquidity flows and the strength of price moves around key levels.

User @Analytics777 notes on X (former Twitter) that silver prices have pulled back from the upper boundary of the channel and are moving towards the midline, which may serve as the key support level.

User @MakersForex points to higher lows and price compression above the upper trendline. However, there is a nearby supply zone acting as resistance. Therefore, further upward movement is likely only if the price breaks above this zone with strong momentum, opening the way for targets above the current levels.

@TECH_PIPS1 mentions a bearish BOS signal (Breakout of Structure). The rebound from the demand zone is considered short-term, while the overall structure remains corrective.

In general, social media sentiment appears cautious. The correction is widely expected to continue, though there is a possibility of short-term rebounds.

XAGUSD Price History

Silver reached its all-time high of $121.636 on 29.01.2026. The lowest price of silver was recorded on 22.02.1991 when the asset declined to $3.53.

It is essential to evaluate historical data to make our forecasts as accurate as possible. The chart below shows the XAGUSD price movement over the last ten years.

The silver price is showing significant volatility due to macroeconomic factors, geopolitical tensions, and industrial demand.

In 2020, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, silver experienced a sharp downturn, followed by a rapid rebound bolstered by expectations of economic recovery.

The year 2021 was marked by price consolidation despite inflation concerns.

In 2022–2023, there was increased volatility due to monetary policy tightening and the strengthening of the US dollar.

In 2025, silver started to grow rapidly and became more volatile. The price accelerated in the spring amid strong industrial demand and gained momentum in late summer and autumn thanks to demand for safe-haven assets. In Q4, the silver price fluctuated within a wide range and closed the year at around $70.46 per ounce.

The silver market started 2026 with a powerful rally. In January, silver settled above $100.00 for the first time, rising to around $121.00. However, this was followed by a sharp reversal, with the price dropping to $70.00 in a matter of days due to active profit-taking and revised interest rate expectations. Although the asset partially recovered, the market remained unstable and sensitive to news.

Silver Fundamental Analysis

Fundamental factors affecting the price of silver (XAGUSD) play a key role in developing trading and investment strategies. The following factors should be taken into account when making trading decisions.

What Factors Affect the XAGUSD Price?

• Industrial demand. Silver is actively applied in various industries, including semiconductor production for electric cars, solar energy, medicine, the food industry, jewelry production, and many other industries. A change in this indicator could have a significant impact on the value of XAG.
• Investment demand. The precious metal is regarded as an investment vehicle. Therefore, it is essential to monitor the level of investment demand. As a rule, it can be done by gaining insight into how many investors are exposed to silver ETFs or physical bullion.
• Macroeconomic indicators. The state of major economies such as China and the US affects the demand for silver. Indicators such as unemployment rates, GDP, manufacturing data, and inflation can exert considerable pressure on the price.
• Geopolitical factors. Global conflicts, economic unrest, and crises can boost or dampen demand for silver. Against global uncertainty, silver prices can experience significant volatility.
• Gold price. There is usually a correlation between the two metals. Since silver is the second most popular metal after gold, changes in the latter’s price can also affect the value of XAG.
• The US dollar’s exchange rate. Like many other commodities, silver is quoted in US dollars. A devaluation of the US currency may buoy the value of silver. Conversely, if the USD strengthens, silver may become more expensive for foreign investors. However, this may have a negative impact on demand and the asset’s price.
• Monetary policy. Quantitative easing or tightening by central banks and changes in interest rates can significantly affect the value of the precious metal. Generally, low interest rates contribute to higher silver prices.
• Environmental and social factors. Sustainable production and regulatory changes that relate to environmental and mining issues can affect the supply of the metal in the market. Eventually, this can affect the price of silver.

When analyzing and forecasting the XAGUSD rate, it is important to consider all the above-mentioned factors in conjunction with technical analysis. This will allow you to comprehensively assess the silver market and make more informed trading decisions.

More Facts About Silver

Silver and gold are historically regarded as a reliable store of value during periods of economic instability. In periods of economic turbulence, investors frequently turn to gold as a safer asset than silver. This is the reason behind the increase in the gold/silver ratio during such periods. In addition, the price of silver tends to decline due to reduced production and demand for the metal during economic turmoil.

However, silver offers distinctive benefits, particularly in the context of investment portfolio diversification. Its high volatility can be advantageous for short-term investors willing to assume risk for the potential for profits when manufacturing sectors that use silver, such as solar energy, electric vehicles, and others, begin to recover.

For those seeking to diversify their investment portfolio, silver represents a promising option. Its low correlation with the stock and debt markets makes it an attractive asset when growth expectations in the financial markets are low.

Investing in shares of mining companies can be an effective alternative to investing in physical silver. Mining companies can generate dividends and have the potential for growth associated with higher silver prices. Furthermore, these companies may be less susceptible to economic fluctuations than other sectors.

While investments in silver offer certain advantages, they also entail certain risks. It is essential for investors to conduct a thorough assessment of their financial objectives before making any decisions.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Investing in XAGUSD

In this section, we will examine the advantages and disadvantages of investing in silver.

Advantages

• Silver is considered a safe asset, especially in times of economic turbulence. Unlike fiat currencies, silver’s value is more resistant to inflation.
• Persistent demand for silver. The continued demand for the precious metal from the industrial, jewelry, and green energy sectors reflects the continued appetite for silver. As a rule, high demand boosts the metal’s value.
• Portfolio diversification. Silver is an excellent option for diversifying an investment portfolio and hedging risks. Due to its inherent physical state as a commodity, silver is not susceptible to a zero value, maintaining a consistent and reliable market value.
• Affordability. Unlike gold, silver trades at lower prices, making it more accessible to various financial market participants. During uptrends, silver usually outperforms gold in terms of returns.
• A variety of investment methods. One can invest in silver in a variety of ways. Among them are physical bullion and coins, investments in shares of mining companies, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), CFDs on silver, futures, and unallocated metal accounts.

Disadvantages

• Silver prices can be subject to significant fluctuations due to changes in global market supply and demand.
• Physical silver does not generate passive income like dividend stocks, deposit interest, or bond coupons. An investor who bets on this asset should have a long-term strategy and be prepared for changes in the market.
• Excessive fear or optimism in the market can trigger significant fluctuations in the price of silver. Irrational price behavior is often observed due to overreaction to news or events. This can result in misguided trading decisions and inaccurate estimation of spot prices.

How We Make Forecasts

To predict the future value of silver, we employ a combined analytical approach. By integrating fundamental and technical analysis, we can gain a more comprehensive understanding of the silver market.

Fundamental analysis offers insights into long-term trends, such as:

• changes in silver demand due to increased interest in green energy;
• the impact of geopolitical factors on supply;
• the US dollar exchange rate.

Technical analysis and social media sentiment evaluation facilitate rapid response to market sentiment shifts. By utilizing charts and candlestick patterns, it is possible to identify short-term price trends and potential entry and exit points. This is particularly crucial in volatile markets, where price swings can present opportunities for swift gains.

When these approaches are used in conjunction, they provide a comprehensive view of the market, increasing the likelihood of successful trading. By integrating fundamental data and technical signals, it is possible to gain deeper insights into short-term corrections and long-term trends, which are essential for developing a robust trading strategy.

Conclusion: Is Silver a Good Investment?

Whether or not to invest in the XAGUSD pair depends on your objectives, risk tolerance, and time horizon. Like any asset, silver can fluctuate significantly depending on market conditions and the economic situation. However, the metal is widely used in the industrial sector.
