The Trend

A trend/countertrend situation exists on XAGUSD, in which an uptrend exists on shorter timeframes but a downtrend appears on the 30 day timeframe. The countertrend on the shorter timeframe may provide an opportunity to sell for those interested in playing the longer term trend.

XAGUSD Moving Averages

XAGUSD’s moving averages tell a multi-facted story about its trend. The 100 and 200 day averages are pointing upwards, suggesting a bullish trend, in contrast to the downward-facing 20 and 50 day averages that imply a bearish trend. Ultimately, this suggests a bearish trend on shorter timeframes, compared to a bullish trend when observing more than 3 months of data.
