Silver is driven relative to gold. The fact is that companies developing deposits deal with 3-4 precious metals at the same time. Gold is a more popular commodity, if the price of it rises, then the production capacity of gold miners will also grow, then attention will be paid to silver.
The situation in the countries leading in silver mining. If, for example, a coup d'état occurs in Mexico, this will immediately affect the price of the precious metal. The cost will include an uncertainty factor.
Seasonal factor. For example, during the wedding period in India, due to an increase in demand for gold, an empty place is created in the precious metals market, which can be occupied by silver.
The general state of the world economy. The main consumption of silver falls on the industry, so in times of crisis, silver does not grow as rapidly as gold. Investors are in no hurry to transfer capital into it.
The price of silver depends on the balance of supply and demand. For a sharp increase, an equally sharp increase in demand for the precious metal is needed.
Also, the silver rate today depends on information about the discovery of new deposits.
The course may be affected by breakthroughs in the chemical industry, for example, making it possible to recover silver from waste.
In everyday life, coins are minted from this metal, jewelry and cutlery are made.
Due to its high light sensitivity, silver is used in photography.
The chemical properties of the metal make it possible to use it as a catalyst in oxidation reactions, for the manufacture of batteries, explosives, and also in gas mask filters.
Silver iodide can even be used to disperse clouds. Relatively recently, silver began to be actively used in the textile industry for the manufacture of special fabrics.
Of course, significant amounts of silver are stored in the form of bars in the state gold and foreign exchange reserves, and are also used as an investment asset both in short-term trading and for long-term investments.

Silver price forecast for February 16, 2024
SILVER uptrend evident from the last 1W green candle makes short trades more risky, but the current set-up targeting 21.819 area still presents a good opportunity for us to sell the pair because the resistance line is nearby and the BB upper band is close which indicates the overbought state of the SILVER pair.

SILVER LONG FROM SUPPORT
We are now examining the SILVER pair and we can see that the pair is going down locally while also being in a downtrend on the 1W TF. But there is also a powerful signal from the BB lower band being nearby indicating that the pair is oversold so we can go long from the support line below and a target at 24.394 level.
