Silver Price Chart

How the silver market trades

Silver leads a double life: roughly half of demand is industrial — solar panels, electronics, brazing alloys — and the rest is investment and jewelry. It follows gold’s macro drivers but with far more amplitude; daily percentage moves of 1.5–2× gold’s are routine, which is plainly visible when comparing the two charts on the same timeframe.

The silver market is also much smaller than gold’s, so flows that gold absorbs quietly can move silver sharply — the metal is famous for fast squeezes and equally fast retreats. Traders often watch the gold–silver ratio to judge whether silver looks cheap or dear relative to its slower-moving sibling.

How to read the silver chart

Use the timeframe buttons (1D, 1W, 1M, 3M, 1Y, 5Y, MAX) to change the period shown. Short timeframes capture intraday volatility, while the 1-year, 5-year, and MAX views reveal whether Silver is in a long-term uptrend, downtrend, or trading range. The line is shaded green when the price rose over the selected period and red when it fell.

Trends, support, and resistance

A series of higher highs and higher lows signals an uptrend; lower highs and lower lows mark a downtrend. Support is a level where buyers have repeatedly stepped in, while resistance is where sellers have capped rallies. These are reference points, not guarantees.
