FX.co ★ Technical analysis of USDX for October 13, 2016

The Dollar index is found at the 98 price level testing short-term channel resistance. There are several indicators and signs that warn bulls of a possible reversal from current levels. There is no trend change confirmation but I prefer to be bearish about the Dollar at the current levels.

Dark blue lines - bullish channel

Blue line-long-term support

Price is at the upper channel boundary. Oscillators are overbought. There are divergence signs. I prefer to be neutral or bearish at current levels. Support is at 97.25. Resistance is at 98.10-98.50.

Green line -support

The Dollar index has made an important breakout above the weekly cloud and the red downward sloping trend line. It is very important for bulls to see this weekly candle close as bullish as it currently is. A reversal below 97 and a weekly close below 97 will be a very bearish sign for the Dollar index and could imply a fake breakout. Short-term bulls must be cautious.
