FX.co ★ Technical analysis of USDX for October 27, 2016

The Dollar index has pulled back towards the lower channel boundary and the top of the support range which I mentioned yesterday. The index still looks like it is making a bearish reversal and I would expect more Dollar weakness over the coming weeks.

Green lines - bullish channel

Red line - medium-term support trend line

Price is testing the lower channel support at 98.40. A break below it will open the way for a push towards the Kumo cloud at 98-97.80 area. The bearish divergence has warned dollar bulls and I believe a major top is possible.

Green line - medium-term trend line support

The weekly candle is shaping up to be a very bearish one confirming trend reversal. A weekly close below 98.30 will be a bearish signal. Important long-term resistance is found at 99.50, so even if we make a higher high, the upside potential is very limited. Bulls need to be very cautious as I believe we can see a bigger degree reversal here.
