FX.co ★ Trading Plan for US Dollar Index for June 26, 2018

Technical outlook:

A short-term 1-hour chart view has been presented here, to look into the most probable wave count. The US Dollar Index most likely terminated into wave (4) of a higher degree around 93.20 levels earlier. The subsequent rally was an impulse, which is labeled as wave 1 of the 5th wave or wave (5) itself. Furthermore, the wave structure has been like that of an expanded flat 3-3-5 and hence labeled as a-b-c, corrective wave. Also please note that prices are trading very close to the Fibonacci 0.618 support near 94.10/20 levels. If the above structure holds to be true, we should see the US Dollar Index reverse/rally from these levels any time now. Only if prices break below 93.20 levels, can we conclude that a more complex corrective wave (4) is underway? Until prices stay above 93.20 levels, we remain optimistic for a potential rally ahead.

Trading plan:

Long now (94.15/25), stop below 93.20, target above 96.00

Fundamental outlook:

Watch out for US Consumer confidence to be out today at 10:00 AM EST.

Good luck!
