Silver Bounce Nailed, Futures Higher Overnight
September 26, 2011 1 Comment
Silver gapped lower today but rallied higher throughout the day as predicted on Sunday night and additionally, the overnight prints are showing spot silver up as high as a percent and a quarter. Institutional short covering came late in the morning session and again just a half an hour before the closing bell as silver made an intraday low of $26.15, but closed $4.63 off of the lows for just a .30 decline. The pattern on the chart is a bottoming tail and more importantly, silver tagged support in the $26-$27 area, but rallied back for a close just off of the flatline.
This should signal some short term relief in the selling and any shorts may be squeezed out should silver make its way back above $31 tomorrow. The likely scenario is a gap higher off of the opening bell and I plan on exiting my SLV $30 call tomorrow should that happen.
