FX.co ★ Technical analysis of USDX for July 12, 2016

The US dollar index reached the previous high and resistance at 96.70 and got rejected. Price is pulling back towards the short-term support of 96.10.

The dollar index is above the 4-hour Kumo (cloud) and is pulling back after being rejected at its previous high. This pullback needs to find support at 96.10 or at least 95.80 otherwise we could see a deeper pullback towards the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement.

The weekly candle is still inside the weekly Kumo and above the red trend line resistance. Price is now at the lower cloud boundary and bulls need a weekly close above it. A weekly close out and below the Kumo (cloud) will be a bearish sign that would turn me bearish for the short-term on the dollar. Weekly support is at 96.25 and next is at 94.90. Resistance is at 96.70 and next, at 97.65.
