- US Dollar Technical Strategy: Holding Long via Mirror Trader Basket **
- Support: 10905, 10827, 10756
- Resistance:10953, 11031, 11095
The Dow Jones FXCM US Dollar Indexturned sharply higher anew, putting the benchmark unit at the highest level in 14 months against its top counterparts. Near-term resistance is at 10953, the 23.6% Fibonacci expansion, with a break above that on a daily closing basis exposing the 38.2% level at 11031. Alternatively, a reversal below the 14.6% Fib at 10905 opens the door for a challenge of the September 16 low at 10827.
Our long-term US Dollar outlook calls for a broadly stronger US Dollar against its major currency counterparts. With that in mind, we are holding long via theMirror Trader US Dollar currency basket.
