All That Glitters Is Not Gold (But Silver?)

24 Jun

And another long Idea - this time in the Silver ETF, SLV.



Looking at the daily chart for SLV, a couple of things standout from a few days ago;
- The price just broke the all-time high at 31.80, along with significant resistance at ~31.50, and
- SLV gapped up, leaving tight stops a bit problematic.

As I've said before in this instance I do two things;
1. Wait for a pullback (which we're now seeing?), and
2. Switch to the commodity futures chart (emphasis - I'm not trading the future, just taking a look)

Using the July Silver contract on the CME;



We can see the breakout, and now the retest(s), of two critical highs from the last few months.

Switching down '1' interval, to the 4-hour chart;



We can see 3-4 retests of those old highs, which now may be acting as support. I've drawn in a short-term trendline and resistance. A cross of that trendline and a close above 36.260 should provide a good entry point.

A stop could then be placed at 35.00 (with a close below that on the 4-hour), just below this recent turmoil.

As for targets, this scenario has SLV making new all-time highs - best to just trail and let SLV tell you where to exit.

All that glitters..

Still watching..

Since my idea, silver futures have gone mostly sideways, JUST below my trigger point. But so far it has not invalidated the setup.
