Silver 4-hour Chart
Silver has just broken above a key long-term support and resistance level at $28.71 and this further confirms its bullish short-term bias.
The precious metal is now close to the August 2 high at $29.23 where it will meet further technical resistance, however, given the short-term uptrending bias it will probably overcome the resistance eventually and continue higher.
Beyond that, upside targets lie at $29.44 (July 24 swing high) and $30.59 (July 18 swing high).
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has just exited overbought, however, indicating an increased chance of a pull back unfolding. Such a correction could see Silver temporarily return to $28.71, or possibly even support at $28.52 (August 15 swing high).
