US Dollar Price Chart – USD Weekly (DXY)
Chart Prepared by Michael Boutros, Sr. Technical Strategist; DXY on TradingView
The U.S. Dollar Index has responded to a critical support zone we’ve been tracking for months now at 97.69-98.38- a region defined by the 2018 swing high, the April lows, and the 61.8% of the 2018 advance. Resistance is eyed with the 2023 low / 2019 high at 99.58- the focus is on a breakout of this range for guidance with the bears still vulnerable while above the median-line.

Canadian Dollar Price Chart – USD/CAD 240min
Chart Prepared by Michael Boutros, Sr. Technical Strategist; USD/CAD on TradingView
The USD/CAD recovery exhausted into confluent resistance this morning at 1.3798/95- a region defined by the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the December 2023 advance and the objective May open. The pullback is testing pivotal support at former resistance early in the session at 1.3713/40- looking for a reaction of this mark. Losses would need to be limited to 1.3638 IF price is heading higher on this stretch with a topside breach exposing key resistance at the 2022 high close / 2023 high at 1.3881/99.

Australian Dollar Price Chart – AUD/USD Daily
Chart Prepared by Michael Boutros, Sr. Technical Strategist; AUD/USD on TradingView
Aussie is threatening a breakout of the June opening-range today with AUD/USD plunging below confluent support at the monthly open / 200-day moving average around 6428/32. We may have celebrated too early as price has rebounded back into this zone in early US trade- the focus is on today’s close with respect to this threshold.
Initial resistance is eyed with the July low-day close (LDC) at 6497 and is backed by the yearly high-day close (HDC) at 6524. Ultimately a breach above the 61.8% retracement of the September decline at 6550 would be needed to mark uptrend resumption. Confirmation of the break would expose initial support at the August / April lows at 6348/62 and the 38.2% retracement of het yearly range- both levels of interest for possible downside exhaustion / price inflection IF reached.
