Supply worries have also added fuel to the rally, particularly in silver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This environment suggests that pullbacks may attract longer-term buyers rather than trigger sustained reversals, even as short-term traders reduce exposure after steep gains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Technical Analysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Silver is pulling back after an aggressive, near-vertical rally that saw prices surge from below $60 to above $77 in just a few weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the sharp drop today, the uptrend remains intact\u2014supported by the steep upward slope of all three moving averages (5, 10, 30 MA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/en-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2026\/03\/image-38-1024x474.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37770\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, <strong>MACD is deeply extended<\/strong>, showing an overbought signal. The histogram is still green, but the widening gap suggests exhaustion may be setting in.

Gold may continue to draw support from dollar weakness and geopolitical hedging, though short-term pullbacks remain likely after repeated record highs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Broader market direction will hinge on Fed communication and early 2026 labour data, with rate expectations continuing to drive both currencies and commodities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Learn more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/markets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">trading<\/a> on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/trade-now\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">VT Markets<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Silver swings sharply after breaking $80 as Fed rate cut bets lift metals and volatility rises into year-end. &#8211;
