Dollar index to approach resistance at 87.155

27 Oct, 2014

SINGAPORE: The dollar index may approach a resistance at 87.155 this week, as it has found a strong support at 84.392.

The resistance and support are provided respectively by the 76.4 percent and the 61.8 percent Fibonacci projection levels of an upward wave (3) or wave C that started at the May 8, 2014 low of 78.906. Both of these waves are capable of travelling to 91.622, the 100 percent projection level.

The correction from the Oct. 3 high of 86.746 may have completed around 84.392, as the index has only briefly touched this level. Driven by a wave 5, the index could have resumed its uptrend.
