Talking Points:

The Dow Jones FXCM US Dollar Indexissued the largest daily gain in 16 months, rising to the strongest level since June 2010. Near-term resistance is at 11176, the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion, with a break above that on a daily closing basis exposing the 50% threshold at 11232. Alternatively, a turn below the 23.6% Fib at 11108 opens the door for a challenge of the 14.6% threshold at 11108.

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.
