Technical Outlook: The Dow Jones FXCM U.S. Dollar Index (Ticker: USDOLLAR) is attempting to mark an outside day reversal off confluence resistance at 12030. The index is coming off a 6-day advance from slope support at 11854 with our immediate outlook lower while within the confines of the descending median-line formation extending off the mid-January high.

USDOLLAR at Cross Roads Heading Into 2Q- Initial Support 11970


Notes: A break below trendline support off the monthly lows shortly after the Asia open last night was accompanied with a support trigger-break in momentum, shifting the immediate focus lower. The decline is now testing interim confluence support at 11970 where basic trendline resistance off the monthly high (grey) converges on the 50% retracement of the May advance.



We’ll be expectiong a rebound here but remain on the lookout for short-triggers while below the upper median-line parallel / 12030. A break lower targets support obejctives at 11933 backed by 11888/91 & the lows at 11846/54. A breach of the weekly opening-range high invalidates the immediate short-bias with such a scenario eyeing initial targets at the 200-day moving average at 12059 & confluence Fibonacci resistance at 12073/76.



Event risk is limited ahead of Friday’s highly anticipated Non-Farm Payroll report where consensus estimates are calling for the addition of some 210K jobs for the month of March. Added caution is warranted heading into the close of the month / quarter as we’re likely to see increased intraday volatility.
