How to read a candle
Each candle on the chart is one day. The thick body runs from where the day opened to where it closed; the thin wicks above and below show the highest and lowest prices reached during that day. Green means it closed higher than it opened, red means lower. A long wick means a price was reached and rejected — someone pushed, and the other side pushed back harder.
Found on Silver Futures (COMEX) recently:
Strong up day on 11 Sep 2026 (the latest bar) — Almost no wick: it opened low, closed high and never looked back. On this asset it has appeared 252 times, and 5 days later the price was higher 60% of the time versus 54% on any random day — so on this asset it told you nothing.
Bearish engulfing on 1 Sep 2026 — The down-candle completely covers the previous up-candle — control changed hands. On this asset it has appeared 32 times, and 5 days later the price was higher 50% of the time versus 54% on any random day — so on this asset it told you nothing.
Strong down day on 26 Aug 2026 — Almost no wick: sellers held it down from open to close. On this asset it has appeared 221 times, and 5 days later the price was higher 52% of the time versus 54% on any random day — so on this asset it told you nothing.

Is it in an uptrend or a downtrend?
The simplest honest answer is the 200-day average — the average closing price of the last 200 days. Above it, the last year of buyers are mostly in profit and the trend is up. Below it, they are not. It is slow on purpose: it ignores noise.
Silver Futures (COMEX) is trading BELOW its 200-day average.

4
Has it moved too far, too fast?
RSI scores the speed of recent moves from 0 to 100. Above 70 is called "overbought" — it has risen fast. Below 30 is "oversold". Neither is a signal to act: things that are rising fast often keep rising. It is a description, not an instruction.
Today: RSI 47.8 (neutral).

5
Is it cheap or expensive compared with itself?
Take the highest and lowest price of the last few months and see where today sits between them. Near the bottom is "cheap" only relative to that range — a falling asset makes new lows all the way down. It answers "where am I", not "what next".
Today sits at 31% of its 252-day range.

Does any of this actually work here?
This is the step almost every site skips. A signal is only useful if it beats what happens anyway. If an asset rose in 60% of all two-week periods, a signal that is "right 60% of the time" told you precisely nothing. We test every signal on this asset's own history and print the comparison — including when the answer is embarrassing.

What could move it that is not on the chart
Price reacts to the world: interest rates, inflation, wars, regulation, company results. A chart records what already happened; it cannot tell you what is scheduled next week.
See "What to watch" above for the forces that matter for this asset.

Advanced: market structure
Once the basics are comfortable, traders read the chart as a sequence of higher highs and higher lows (or the reverse), and watch where price broke that sequence. That is what our Smart Money view measures — structure breaks, the fair-value midpoint, and levels where large orders were likely filled. It is a way of reading a chart, not a law.

The only rule that always applies
Nothing above predicts anything. Size any position so that being completely wrong is survivable, and never put in money you cannot afford to lose. Everything on this page is a record of the past, published to help you think — not advice to buy or sell.
If you had put $100 in — every past year
1,005 periods · from 1,257 days of pricesEach bar counts how many one-year periods finished in that range. Red is a loss, green is a gain. Fees and spread are not included.
Risk score
Higher means more can go wrong. This is not advice to buy or sell. Built from 2 factors — volatility, track record — and anything we cannot measure is left out rather than guessed. Compare it with care: coins are scored on up to six factors including supply, fall from peak, size and liquidity, so a low number here is a thinner claim than the same number on a coin. A low score does not mean safe — this page's own worst year is the better guide to that.
What the chart says today
We calculate these on our own server from 1,257 days of prices, so the figures on this page are the same ones our assistant is given. Nothing is read off a picture.
Have these signals actually worked on Silver Futures (COMEX)?
tested on its own historyMost sites show you a signal. We also show how often it was right, how often that would have happened anyway, and how many times it has ever occurred. A signal only tells you something when it beats the base rate by a clear margin — matching it means it told you nothing.
Smart Money view of Silver Futures (COMEX)
market structure · 90-day rangeTraders who follow “Smart Money Concepts” read a chart as a record of where big orders were filled rather than as a set of indicators. Every level below is measured from our own daily candles, and the rule that produced it is written next to it — nothing here is drawn by eye.
Smart Money Concepts is a way of reading a chart, not a law of markets, and it has no academic backing. We show it because a lot of people trade by it and deserve to see it measured rather than preached. None of this is advice, and levels are computed from daily candles only.

plain words · freeAnswers are built from the same figures shown on this page. No question is too basic.
Not financial advice. We explain the figures; the decision is always yours.
One caveat worth understanding. The holding periods we count start on every trading day, so they overlap heavily — yesterday's year and today's year share all but one day. That means they are not 1,005 independent experiments; a single long run up or down colours a great many of them at once. It is an honest picture of what holding this asset felt like, not a sample you can do statistics on. We do not show unlock dates, because the data source for them is not something we can verify for free, and we would rather leave a gap than guess. Buzdy is free to compare and does not take a commission on anything you do next.
