Different moving averages (MAs) help us better identify trends across multiple time frames. We use 3 basic MAs to find out which sentiment dominates each horizon. The purple line represents the monthly , the green line the 6 months and the yellow line the annual moving average. XAG/USD is currently breaking over short-term MA. Therefore, as we can see in the chart below, all MAs still support bullish sentiment.

Basic technical analysis points to neutral sentiment in recent weeks.XAG/USD is currently very close to the psychological level of 28.00 . The divergence between price development and the RSI could motive short-term bulls. However, there could be strong resistance at 30.00 to move further north. In the event of a further decline, the demand zone (green rectangle), where there are also the Fibonacci retracement level of 23.60% and the psychological level of 25.00 , could be strong support for the price.
