Silver technicals suggest pullback momentum building
The hourly chart is showing classic short-term reversal setup on XAGUSD. Signs point toward range support retesting—approximately 72 level looks like the next logical target as buyers may step in.
What caught attention: significant put positioning emerged on SLV options earlier—the 1/16 expiration 63 strike saw notable volume. This kind of put flow typically signals hedging activity or directional bets on downside moves, which aligns with the technical picture. The combination of weakening hourly structure and concentrated option interest suggests traders are bracing for lower prices before any fresh rally attempt.

The 72 position is indeed interesting, but I'm more concerned about those put orders... Is the volume at the 63 strike a bit too aggressive?

The 72 level is interesting, but I think the chance of breaking 63 is higher... Those institutional put positions are clearly meant to push the price down.

Is the 72 position reliable? It seems that the put volume at 63 is so large, they must have a lot of courage to short.

The 72 position is indeed a bit significant, but I'm more concerned about that batch of short options... feels like big players are laying a trap.

Can the 72 level really hold? It feels like institutions are setting a trap.
