US Dollar Technical Strategy: Holding Long via Mirror Trader Basket **
-
Support: 11736, 11688, 11638
-
Resistance:11839, 11901. 11951
The Dow Jones FXCM US Dollar Index continues to drift sideways in consolidation mode above April’s swing bottom. A daily close below the 11736-7 area (February 6 low, 38.2% Fibonacci expansion) exposes the 50% level at 11688. Alternatively, a push above the 23.6% Fib retracement at 11839 opens the door for a challenge of the 38.2% threshold at 11901.
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.
