- US Dollar Technical Strategy: Holding Long via Mirror Trader Basket **
- Support: 11246, 11211, 11143
- Resistance:11295, 11329, 11370
The Dow Jones FXCM US Dollar Indexappears vulnerable to a correction lower having produced a bearish Dark Cloud Cover candlestick pattern. A daily close below the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement at 11211 exposes the 11143-55 area marked by the October 3 high and the 38.2% level. Alternatively, a turn above the 50% Fib expansion at 11295 opens the door for a challenge of the 61.8% threshold at 11329.
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.
