Silver eyes yearly bottom on breaking key support confluence

Silver finally follows gold while breaking short-term support confluence near $26.30, which in turn drags it towards late January lows. Although oversold RSI on four-hour (4H) chart probes the metal sellers, a sustained break of the key support, coupled with the bearish MACD suggests further downside of the commodity prices. As a result, the $25.50 and the $25.00 may offer intermediate halts during the quote’s south-run targeting the yearly low of $24.13.

If at all the bullion regains above the previous support near $26.30, it needs to clear a downward sloping trend line from Thursday to reject the bearish hopes. Also acting as upside filters are the $27.00 round-figure and February top surrounding $28.30. Overall, silver is up for grabs should the sellers welcome the latest support break.
