The precious metals of Gold and Silver saw net April gains of +$12.90 (0.6%) to
$1999.10, and +$1.07
(4.4%) to
$25.23 respectively. Monthly momentum is increasingly positive, which bodes bullish for May.

Summary
Gold: printing a new multi-month high of the $2063s, if
cooling back to settle in the $1999s.
Price momentum was net positive for a second month. The April candle is a little spiky on the upper side, but we do have a higher high and higher low. Next upside resistance is the Aug'2020 historic high of the
$2089s. Any price action >2100, would offer the 2400/2500 zone.
-
Silver: printing $26.24, if cooling back to settle at $25.23. Momentum was net positive for a second month. I would note the monthly 10MA at $21.63, which silver settled far above.
A key threat to silver, will be if the main market sees renewed downside. A further downward pressure will be if the dollar resumes broadly upward.
Of the two metals, I favour Gold, especially for a potential geo-political 'fear bid'. I'd accept silver has massively more upside potential than gold, but many have been saying that since the $49s of 2011.
