Silver XAGUSD is falling off a cliff breaking below 20.45 thereby confirming downtrend. A trend that is likely to take Silver 0.618 retracement at around 18.39. RSI below 40 supports the bearish outlook

Gold/Silver XAUXAG  ratio is going ballistic with no strong resistance levels in the horizon. XAUXAG is likely to reach 1.618 projection of the Triangle it broke out of about a week ago, i.e. a target of 92.95. However, it could continue further than that. If we calculate the distance from the peak to trough in the triangle and add it to the break out price we get approx.. 93.92 i.e. the 1.764 Projection

However, since there is no strong resistance levels XAUXAG can go higher. 95.48 is not unlikely . The ratio has even broken bullish out of the rising channel underlining the strength of the uptrend. To reverse that scenario a close below 82.30 is needed.
