Phil Flynn, senior analyst at Price Futures group: There seems to be some profit-taking in the oil market due to concerns that OPEC will increase production by more than expected.July 5, Swissquote senior market analyst Ipek Ozkardeskaya: The preference for the US dollar is weakening. First, concerns about US debt are rising, and second, the preference for US debt is facing risks. Another reason is that the tariff situation and trade disruptions will have a negative impact on US economic growth, and the Federal Reserve may not be able to support the economy when inflation risks rise.July 5th news: On July 4th local time, a federal judge in the United States briefly halted the Trump administrations plan to deport eight immigrants to South Sudan in order to buy time for their lawyers to state their claims in a Massachusetts court.On July 5, institutional analyst Javier Blas said that OPEC+ representatives are discussing a fourth consecutive increase of 411,000 barrels per day, but there is also the possibility of a "slightly larger" increase.

Silver Price Analysis: The XAG/USD pair appears susceptible as it consolidates in a range below $22.00

Silver struggles to get traction on Wednesday and trades in a limited range during the early European session. The precious metal stays below the $22.00 round-number level, and the technical setup continues to favor bearish traders.

 

The aforementioned handle corresponds with the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) and limits the recovery from the YTD low, which was reached last Friday in the $21.20-$21.15 range. In addition, oscillators on the daily chart are firmly entrenched in bearish area, lending credence to the dismal forecast for the immediate future. This shows that the path of least resistance for the XAG/USD pair is down.

 

However, sustained purchasing above the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of the recent rise from October 2022, around the $22.15 area, could negate the negative bias and spark a short-covering rally. The XAG/USD could then accelerate into the $22.55-$22.60 supply zone en way to the $23.00 mark or the 61.8% Fibo. level, which could cap any further bullish advance.

 

In contrast, the 50% Fibo. level, located in the vicinity of $21.35, appears to operate as immediate support ahead of Friday's swing low, which is around the $21.20-$21.15 range. A decisive breach below $21.00 might send the XAG/USD to the $20.60 area. The downward trend might extend toward the $20.00 psychological level and the next significant support near the $19.75-$19.70 zone.
