It traded just under the mid-$85.00s and was down 0.40% on the day.\n\nPrice action stayed below the 100-hour EMA near $86.15, which limited intraday rises. The near-term tone was neutral with a slight bearish tilt.\n\nThe MACD histogram turned marginally positive and the MACD line moved above the signal line, near the zero level. This pointed to only limited upside momentum after a prior drop.\n\nThe RSI was near 43 and remained below its midline, which suggested ongoing selling pressure. Resistance was first seen at $86.15, with the next level near $87.20 if price breaks higher.\n\nSupport sat near $85.30, then around $84.85, which held the latest rebound. A sustained move below $84.85 could open the lower $84.00 area, while a move above $86.15 could reduce the bearish bias.\n\nThe technical analysis was produced with help from an AI tool.\n\nWe are seeing that silver&#8217;s inability to hold gains above the mid-$85.00s points to underlying weakness. Any attempt to rally is quickly being sold off, particularly as it approaches the key resistance level around $86.15. This pattern suggests that sellers are currently in control of the short-term price action.\n\nThis price behavior is consistent with recent macroeconomic data. The US Dollar Index has remained firm above 105 following last week\u2019s stronger-than-expected jobs report, creating headwinds for dollar-denominated commodities like silver. Furthermore, we note that manufacturing PMI data out of China for February 2026 came in at a contractionary 49.8, signaling a slowdown in industrial demand which is critical for silver.\n\nFor traders using options, this creates an opportunity to sell call credit spreads with a short strike above the $86.15 resistance level. This strategy would profit from either a continued decline in price or if silver simply remains range-bound below that key hurdle in the coming weeks. The limited upside momentum shown by the MACD indicator supports this neutral-to-bearish stance.\n\nThose holding short futures positions should view the $84.85 level as the first critical support to watch. A decisive break below this price would confirm the bearish trend and likely lead to a test of the lower $84.00 area. Any sustained move back above the $86.15 mark would be our signal to reconsider bearish positions.\n\nThis current technical setup is reminiscent of the price action we observed during the third quarter of 2025. Back then, a similar failure at a key moving average preceded a significant leg down in price. We are watching carefully to see if history repeats itself, as the broader market conditions appear just as challenging now as they did then.\n<p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Start trading now &#8211; Click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/trade-now\/\">here<\/a> to create your real VT Markets account <\/strong> <\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:post-content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Silver dipped below $84 in Asia, rebounded to mid-$85s, but stayed weak beneath key resistance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":38,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30513","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-live-updates"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"featured_image_src":null,"featured_image_src_square":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"josephine","author_link":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/author\/josephine\/"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30513","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/38"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30513"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30513\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30513"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30513"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30513"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
