In this technical blog, we’re going to make a recap of our recent forecast in Silver (XAG), which has been following the path that we had established in our charts offered to the customers of Elliottwave-Forecast. If you’ve been following us in the last couple of weeks, an interesting move has happened in the metal across the board after having posted a low below the $17.70 barrier on January 14th. Around there, Silver finished a wave W red and initiated an upward move in the context of a wave X red.
Before making the recap of our forecast, we should highlight to those who don’t join us yet at our forecasting service that our philosophy is to not follow the fundamentals, as we believe the market moves on a technical dynamic and the news/events that happen in the world just act as a catalyst for the moves that the market’s technical nature has established.
That’s why we don’t care about the recent developments in the context of the trade war between US-China, tensions in the Middle East and the most recent news that has caught the attention of the press regarding the outbreak of coronavirus across China and other countries. We mention this because the Elliott Wave theory can explain the recent dynamics in the financial markets, including the USD moves.
