Silver technical analysis: At five-month eyes, nears key long-term MA hurdle

  • Silver is extending four-day winning streak.  
  • Silber is nearing key 50-hour MA hurdle of $16.186.  

Silver is solidly bid for fifth striaght day and is currently trading at $16.11, the highest level since Feb. 20.  

The 14-day relative strength index (RSI) is now hovering at 73.66, the highest level since January, meaning the precious metal is most overbought in six months.  

As a result, the bulls may take a breather around the 50-month moving average, currently at $16.186.  

It is worth noting that the Silver bulls have repeatedly struggled to force a convincing  monthly close above the 50-month MA since July 2016.  

Hence, a monthly close above that average is needed to confirm  a long-term bullish breakout.
