DXY posts bullish “inverted hammer” candle Tuesday; still bullish above 80.53
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The DXY while finishing near the lows of the day actually posted a bullish candlestick formation on the chart called an “inverted hammer” and remains safely above the key 80.53 support level for now.
DXY has a litany of data points to which to react Wednesday
The data flow that may have an impact on the DXY Tuesday includes: German Consumer Confidence; British GDP; British Inflation Report Hearings; German 10-Year Bund Auction; British Distributive Trades Survey; US Durable Goods Orders; US Weekly Jobless Claims; US Chicago PMI; US Leading Indicators; and the US University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment;
Technical outlook for the DXY
Technicians are saying the DXY still looks higher technically despite the very recent pullback in prices. They have as an upside target of 83.45 with additional Fibonacci resistance at 83.94 above that. Tuesday’s bullish “inverted hammer” candle did nothing but build their short-term bullishness. Support for the DXY comes in at this week’s low of 80.53. A break below that level would negate the bullish case and open up downside to the 10/3 low of 79.63.
