Key support in silver is prior multi decade resistance as we know but since it didn’t test that resistance as of yet could be a sign of higher support and ended above it. Here is a evaluation from a few known analysts for the end of the year.
To signal higher highs in 2026, silver needs to hold above key support levels established in late 2025 (around $50-$60) and break decisive resistance, with many analysts pointing to levels like $70+ and aiming for $100+ as confirmations of a strong 2026 rally, driven by supply issues, industrial demand, and loose monetary policy. A strong close to 2025 above $50-$60, ideally near $70-$80, would solidify the bullish trend, setting the stage for further price discovery into triple digits, according to forecasts from FXEmpire, FOREX.com, and Kitco analysts.Key Price Levels & Signals for 2026:
- Crucial Support: Maintaining prices above the $30-$50 accumulation zone, with strong support around the $50-$54 breakout level, is vital for the bullish case.
- Early 2026 Resistance: A first test for consolidation might occur near $65-$66; clearing this zone confirms continued upside.
- Higher High Signals:
- Sustained Breakout: Staying above the $50-$70 range, especially closing 2025 strongly (e.g., near $70-$80).
- Target Levels: Analysts see $80-$100 as a realistic target range for 2026, with some projections going higher.
- Technical Break: Breaking past the $73-$88 resistance area (extensions from 2011 highs) would be a major signal.
Why These Levels Matter:
- Price Discovery: Silver is in “price-discovery territory” after breaking 13-year resistance near $50-$54.
- Macro Factors: Persistent inflation, dovish central bank policies (rate cuts), and geopolitical risks support higher silver prices.
- Supply/Demand: Critical supply shortages and surging industrial demand (solar, EVs, semiconductors) provide fundamental support.
In essence, holding the gains past $50-$60 by year-end 2025 and pushing towards the $70-$80 mark would strongly signal that silver is set for higher highs and potential triple-digit figures in 2026.
