FX.co ★ #USDX wave analysis for May 6, 2015

The US dollar index reached the 38% retracement and reversed lower yesterday as the greenbach was weaker again. The trend remains bearish. Time for a fresh low has come in order to complete the downward formation and reach the Head and Shoulders target of 93. The US dollar index is forming an A-B-C correction and, I believe, we are at the final stages of wave C down.

Green line = H&S neckline resistance

Orange lines = downward sloping channel

Blue lines = H&S projection of target

The USD index is inside a downward sloping channel. As long as the price is inside this channel, the trend will remain bearish. The price is also below the Ichimoku cloud. So resistance is found at 96 and our downside target is at 93-50.93 area.

The USD index is most probably at its final stages of the decline of wave C and, I believe, this will complete an A-B-C three wave correction. The trend remains bearish. I expect an upward reversal once wave C completes.
