Indeed, things are looking more depressed for the greenback? Now, what led me to say such pessimistic statement? Well, technically speaking, the US dollar index (USDX) which is a measure of the greenback’s valuation against a basket of other currencies like the arch nemesis, the euro, has just broken down from a massive cone head like head and shoulders pattern.

Welcome to another week of FX trading! In today’s fx feature is an update of the US dollar index.

TGIF! Welcome to another day of FX trading. In today’s chart is an update of the US dollar index (USDX) that I presented the other day (please check it here). Back then the index was still moving within a descending channel. My thinking was, it would continue to move lower since the channel was still intact.

Good day forex peep! In today’s fx special is the US dollar index.

Here’s an update of the US dollar index or the USDX which I last posted on July 15 (kindly see my last blog here). As you can see from the chart, the index has continued to weaken after it broke its long term uptrend line and the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level that I drew. At present, the index is trading just above 82.000. A move below this could send it lower to 81.000 or even 80.000.
