Talking Points:

The Dow Jones FXCM US Dollar Index paused to consolidate after producing the largest daily rally in five weeks. Near-term resistance is at 11511, the 50% Fibonacci expansion, with a break above that on a daily closing basis exposing the 61.8% level at 11565. Alternatively, a reversal below the 38.2% Fib at 11457 clears the way for a test of the 23.6% expansion at 11391.

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.
