Truly Epic Silver Signals: Vying for Your Attention

July 17, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) If we had to pick one day, or one situation when a single market provided most indications during a single day, it would be yesterday's performance of silver.

There's not much to say about yesterday's session while looking at gold and mining stocks - they both moved a bit lower. But things are very much different when we look at silver. The white metal jumped higher decisively, rallying above the June highs and the SLV ETF soared on volume that we haven't seen so far this year. The volume was even higher than what we saw at the 2016 top! It was bigger than what we saw at the late-2012 top (that one was close, though)! In fact, the only year when we saw higher daily volume during silver's upswing was 2011. Except for THE silver top, the mid-2012 rebound, and the late-2010 massive run-up, all other cases when silver soared, were accompanied by volume what was lower than what we saw yesterday. And these were almost always major tops. Combining this with the shape of yesterday's candlestick in the SLV gives us very clear indications. They are beyond-words bearish.

Let's take a look at the chart for details.

Silver's Volume Record

SLV may be viewed aspaper silverby some (just as GLD may be viewed as a form ofpaper gold ), but it can be very useful for detecting market turnarounds, because of its relative popularity among individual silver investors.

Looking at the past year, it's obvious that the shape of yesterday's candlestick is just like what we saw at the 2019 high and at the mid-2018 top. Silver opened the day higher, then rallied only to give away the intraday gains before the session was over. This all happened while gold and mining stocks declined a bit, so it was a crystal-clear case of silver's outperformance.

Reversals, such asshooting stars in silver , should be confirmed by big volume as the session should represent how bears overwhelmed bulls in a fierce battle. In this way, the session shows that bulls gave their best but still lost to bears. From that point, lower prices are to be expected as bears have proven to be stronger, and because when nothing happens in the market (there are no buyers and no sellers), the price simply falls. The important part of all this is volume, because its absence means no fierce battle. This means no profound victory of bears - just a back-and-forth action without much meaning.

To say that yesterday's volume was big would be like saying that continuously smashing one's face against the wall is not the best use of their time. It's true, but it doesn't cover the full story either. The silver volume was huge. It was breathtaking, and it was epic. The above chart is not big enough to show to huge it really was, because there is nothing else that's similarly big.

Silver's Volume Record: Full Perspective

We enlarged the volume readings and we added a horizontal red line, to make it clear when volume was bigger than it was yesterday - we haven't seen it as high as we did yesterday since late 2011. Of course, we mean only the days when silver moved higher.

We marked other cases when volume was somewhat similarly high or when it was big on relative basis (yesterday it was huge in both: absolute and relative terms). In the vast majority of cases, these were excellent opportunities to short silver. Yes, it's counter-intuitive (silver rallied on big volume so it's showing strength, right?) and counters thetechnical-analysis-basics , but it's highly effective. And please remember that we are talking about the volume alone here.

The shape of yesterday's session was very bearish on its own, and so is the fact that silver clearly outperformed gold. The combination of all three factors (volume, reversal, outperformance) is what makes yesterday's session the clearest bearish silver sign that we saw in many months.

You may think that we're crazy, you may think that were perma-bears ( which is not true ), or that we hate silver (actually, that's our preferred metal of choice for the long run, but there aresome cases when it's better to be invested in something else ), but that's not true. If there was just one trade to be made based on our analysis this year, we would suggest it being the short position in the precious metals market right now. The silver signals are one of the most effectiveprecious metals trading tipsand we just saw a three-strong combination of epic proportions that happened right after we had already seenmultiple non-silver signspointing to the decline in the precious metals market in the upcoming months.
