  • US Dollar Technical Strategy: Holding Long via Mirror Trader Basket **
  • Support: 10959, 10845, 10753
  • Resistance:11143, 11216, 11308

The Dow Jones FXCM US Dollar Indexpaused to consolidate following a breakout that seems to mark longer-term uptrend resumption. A daily close above the 11102-43 area marked by the 23.6% Fibonacci expansion and the October 3 high exposes the 38.2% level at 11216. Alternatively, a turn below the intersection of channel top resistance-turned-support and the 23.6% Fib retracement at 10959 clears the way for a test of the 38.2% threshold at 10845.

We remain broadly bullish on the US Dollar against its leading counterparts in line with our long-term fundamental outlook. As such, we remain long via theMirror Trader US Dollar currency basket.
