The Dollar index is now trading below the 38% retracement I mentioned in my previous analysis. Support is found now at 79.95 where the 50% retracement is. Trend remains down as the index continues to make lower lows and lower highs.
Ichimoku cloud is above current price. For a trend reversal we need to see the Dollar index break above 80.60 and close above that level. Short-term resistance is found at 80.40. So we can see prices bounce to that level easily. Bulls however need to be cautious as the trend is down and we can drop towards 79.80.
My target for some time now is the Ichimoku cloud in the daily chart above. We are getting closer to the daily support where the corrective decline from 81 could end. Concluding, trend remains bearish as long as price is below 80.70. We target 79.95-79.85 for a bottom.
