Silver price continues to trade sideways on Thursday, in the absence of a catalyst, prior to the release of crucial US economic data. The Mexican Peso (MXN) is depreciating as a result of investors' risk aversion ahead of the US Nonfarm Payrolls report for February. At the time of writing, the XAG / USD exchange rate was $20.05, an increase of 0.19%.

 

XAG / USD remained steady throughout the day, unable to break above or below the $19.98-$20.28 range. However, investors should be aware that Silver fell below the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $21.80, indicating a downward bias for the precious metal. Notably, the 50-day EMA is approaching the 200-day EMA, and once it crosses below the latter, a death cross would exacerbate a decline toward the $18.84 daily low from November 3.

 

But first, XAG / USD must surpass the YTD low of $19.92. A breach of the latter will expose the psychological level of $19.00, followed by the daily low on November 3 at $18.84.

 

In an alternative scenario, the first level of resistance for XAG / USD would be the daily high of $20.06. Once cleared, the next resistance level would be the daily low-turned resistance from February 28 at $20.43, followed by the daily low-turned resistance from November 28 at $20.87.
