- US Dollar Technical Strategy: Holding Long via Mirror Trader Basket **
- Support: 11102, 10993, 10918
- Resistance:11216, 11308, 11400
The Dow Jones FXCM US Dollar Indexcorrected downward after piercing October’s high to hit the strongest level in over four years. Near-term resistance is at 11216, the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion, with a break above that on a daily closing basis exposing the 50% level at 11308. Alternatively, a reversal below the 11102-43 area marked by the October 3 high and the 23.6% Fib opens the door for a challenge of trend line support at 10993.
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.
