Talking Points:

  • US Dollar Technical Strategy: Holding Long via Mirror Trader Basket **
  • Support: 11772, 11715, 11584
  • Resistance:11888, 11983, 12077

The Dow Jones FXCM US Dollar Index re-accelerated upward anew, with prices establishing a new six-year high. A daily close above the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion at 11888 exposes the 50% level at 11983. Alternatively, a reversal below the 23.6% Fib at 11772 opens the door for a challenge of resistance-turned-support at 11715, the January 8 high.

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.
