Notes: In my final US Dollar Weekly Price Outlook we famous that we had been on the trying to validate a low in DXY with, “weekly support now seen at the July monthly open / 1999 high at 104.77/88 – an area of interest for possible downside exhaustion IF reached.” The index briefly registered a low at 104.63 earlier than rebounding sharply greater with the rally breaching the month-to-month opening-range highs on Thursday. The advance is now testing the first main resistance zone at 107.51-108.09– a area outlined by the confluence of the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the July decline, the yearly high-week shut, and the 2001 low. Risk for inflection into this area with a weekly shut above wanted to maintain the instant advance viable in the days forward in direction of the yearly highs at 109.29 and the 78.6% retracement of the 2001 decline at 110.25.
