Orange lines= upward sloping channel
The Dollar index remains inside the upward sloping channel as shown in the weekly chart above. The Chikou span is turning into a positive slope although the kijun- and tenkan-sen are flat. The price held above the tenkan-sen during the previous week. This week's candle looks that the bullish trend will resume right away. As long as we trade above 97, the chances favor to bulls. The 61.8% retracement at 102 has yet to be reached.
