It took silver a long time characterized by a really long consolidation which lasted more than 3 years (2021 – 2023). The breakout happened, even on the secular timeframes.
Silver completing a bullish basing pattern
In general, one of the most powerful chart structures is the bullish basing pattern.
In essence, a bullish basing pattern is a long consolidation in which key support levels are respected. The consolidation is orderly, it occurs after a big rise. Remember, the longer the consolidation, the higher the upside potential.
Silver’s basing pattern has all these characteristics:
- A big rise in the period June/July of 2020.
- A long consolidation since August of 2020.
- Key support levels around 20 USD/oz were respected.
- The only ‘violation’ of key support occurred late summer 2022. As seen on the chart, this ‘violation’ morphed into a series of 3 bullish micro-patterns, right below 20 USD/oz.
In sum, the daily silver price chart has a very bullish looking.

- The falling silver trendline since the 2021 top – as seen, silver is now for several consecutive days above the falling trendline – in a way, this is a breakout.

The silver market breakout on its secular timeframe
Now, let’s turn to silver’s secular timeframe. We use the weekly silver price chart to analyze secular trends including a possible secular silver market breakout.
The annotations on this chart are important. The Fibonacci retracement level that truly matters is the 50% retracement level which comes in around 24.50 USD/oz.
As seen, silver moved above the falling trendline which connects the 2011 peak with the highs since 2020. Moreover, silver is now above its 50% retracement level. What is truly unique is that silver is now above both patterns on its secular chart – this has not happened before.
Moreover, and this might be the proverbial elephant in the room, the triangle visible on silver’s secular breakout is nothing short of beautiful, hence powerful. Remember, the longer a chart pattern, the stronger. This means that the power unleashed by the silver market breakout is tremendous.
November 2nd – Did the silver breakout stall? Not really, silver has been hesitating around its long term 38.2% Fibonacci level, a price point nobody talks about because it’s a long term retracement level (social media and financial media are so short term oriented). Moreover, as silver seasonality is favorable, we believe each hesitation is a temporary consolidation on the way higher. Moreover, an epic silver shortage is brewing, which is the catalyst for silver to move to ATH in 2025.
