Silver has definitely been in the spotlight lately, namely due to the incredible #silversqueeze rally. But as of right now, there is one detail that’s pointing to silver’s next movement.
Gold moved higher yesterday (Feb. 23) and so did the rest of the precious metals sector. But as you will see below, this didn’t really change anything. And there’s one detail that actually perfectly fits this kind of movement. Let’s take look at the charts, starting with the key one – and no, it’s not the one featuring gold.
