Technical analysis of USDX for October 20, 2016

The Dollar index continues to consolidate inside the triangle pattern. Trend remains bullish as price remains above the 4 hour Ichimoku cloud. There are several warning signs of a Dollar top here but we could still push towards 99 before turning lower.

Green lines -bullish channel

Blue lines - triangle pattern

Red line - important long-term support

The Dollar index has broken out of the bullish channel but is trading sideways inside the triangle pattern above the Ichimoku cloud support. Short-term support is at 97.60 while resistance is at 98.20. A break of either of the two levels will produce a trading signal with 96.50 and 99 as possible targets respectively.

Red line - support

Green line - resistance

On the daily chart, I have pointed out the two important short-term levels. Oscillators are diverging. This is a warning but only if price breaks below 97.60 we will have confirmation of a short-term trend change. A medium-term trend will change if price breaks below the Ichimoku cloud at 95.50-95.90 area. This is also where we find a very important support trend line from 91.90.
