• XAG/USD climbs for the third day, testing the $70.00 mark.
• RSI stays bullish, but overbought risks may emerge soon.
• A break above $72.05 exposes $75.00 as the next target.

Silver (XAG/USD) prices rally for the third straight day on Friday, up more than 2% and, for the week, gains over 7.40%, as a firm US Dollar (USD) is not an excuse for precious metals buyers, who are choosing flight-to-quality over haven demand due to the difficult US fiscal stance. The XAG/USD pair trades at $69.50 after reaching a high of $70.02.

XAG/USD Price Forecast: Technical Outlook

From a technical perspective, Silver’s uptrend remains in place, with traders eyeing a breakout above $70.00. Once achieved, they will set their sight on the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at $72.05. A breach would expose the psychologically significant $75.00 level, which becomes the next area of interest.

Momentum stays positive, evidenced by the Relative Strength Index (RSI) staying above 50 and nearing overbought levels.

On the downside, XAG/USD’s first support is the 100-day SMA at $68.47. Below lies the August 20 low of $65.64, ahead of challenging the August 19 swing low of $62.19, followed by the 50-day SMA at $61.35.
