US Dollar Technical Strategy: Holding Long via Mirror Trader Basket **
-
Support: 11878, 11737, 11688
-
Resistance:11965, 12107, 12221
The Dow Jones FXCM US Dollar Index broke a five-week range to extend to the highest level in over six years. A daily close above the 23.6% Fibonacci expansion at 11965 exposes the 38.2% level at 12107. Alternatively, a turn below the 11854-78 area (March 2009 high, 14% Fib) clears the way for a test of the February 26 low at 11737.
We remain broadly bullish on the US Dollar against its leading counterparts in line with ourlong-term fundamental outlook. As such, we remain long via theMirror Trader US Dollar currency basket.
