Talking Points:

  • US Dollar Technical Strategy: Holding Long via Mirror Trader Basket **

  • Support: 11918, 11841, 11779

  • Resistance: 11966, 12043, 12109

The Dow Jones FXCM US Dollar Index turned sharply lower, producing the largest decline in close to three months. A daily close below the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement at 11918 exposes the 38.2% level at 11841. Alternatively, a move above the 14.6% Fib at 11966 clears the way for a test of the June 1 high at 12043.

We remain broadly bullish on the US Dollar against its leading counterparts in line with our long-term fundamental outlook. As such, we remain long via the Mirror Trader US Dollar currency basket.
