The best performing precious metal for 2020 was silver, up 47.86% as investment demand and the outlook for more solar power improved. Gold had its biggest annual advance since 2010, up 25.11%, after a tumultuous year that included four straight months of declines before snapping back in December.

Gold price is breaking out and the price is getting overbought. The problem is traders are adapted to a consolidation phase trade and not the breakout move.
