USDOLLAR trade ideas

US Dollar Index - Bearish ??US Dollar Index – After a lot of high impacting news for the dollar this week it is crucial that we determine the direction of the dollar heading into a new week. News Summary – There was one question every investor was eager to gain insight on and that was whether we would be given a clear path and date for when the US will begin to start tapering bond purchases. Powell’s speech certainly gave a hawkish tone however as we were not given a clearer timeline on the above this held the dollar back and is the reason, we didn’t see an impulsive move that matched the hawkish tone we seen. We should continue to monitor closely the numbers coming out of the US over the next few months to give hints as to when the Fed will be pressured into putting the ball into motion so to speak. Analysis – Moving into next week we are looking for a bearish impulsive move from the US Dollar. Moving on to the 4hr chart we can see we have just posted a double top and initially bounced. We anticipate a move down towards the neckline with full confirmation of further bearish pressure on the horizon after a break and retest of the neckline and the minor ascending “watch for break” trend. We will be monitoring USD pairs for shorting opportunities. As always, I’d love to hear your thoughts on the US Dollar Index and what your outlook is. Let me know in the comments below. Hope you have had a profitable week in the markets, and it continues through into next week. The Fx Chartist

DXY (DOLLAR INDEX)On overall, I have a bullish momentum for the Dollar index but we can see the formation of a head and shoulders which could mean that we are likely to see a bit of USD weakness temporarily. If we don't see a break above the current support, then we are going to see USD weakness. Only after we see a break of the next suport level at 12046, should we see DXY continuation a bullish move to 12133. Watch out for the news releases this week that could affect the USD, and as always, trade safe. Like and comment your thoughts. check linktree in Bio for chart analysis.

USDOLLAR Weekly Chart Trends Up As Market Anticpates TaperingThe above chart show’s FXCM’s USDOLLAR index on a weekly time scale and is reflective of the primary trend. Longer-term charts tend to align with the underlying fundamentals and here we can see a higher trough followed by a higher peak – the technical definition of an uptrend. The greenback is trending up as market participants start anticipating the tapering of Fed expansion. In this regard. last Friday’s NFP was a good number and the USD responded. The Fed is likely waiting for another NFP print before any policy change as last month’s number did not fully factor in the current wave of Covid-19 sweeping through the US, and which doesn’t seem to have peaked yet. We note that price never moves in a straight line and if the uptrend continues we will be monitoring for evidence of a zig-zag structure similar to the dashed red lines.

USDOLLAR - Right Shoulder Completion ⚠️For more analysis like these, be sure to give it a thumbs up! Last week we were waiting for the right shoulder to be completed. We moved up nicely to the right shoulder and we capitalised on the XXXUSD shorts, particularly the EURUSD short (see linked chart for EURUSD analysis). We are now waiting for bearish price action to confirm USD weakness. If we do not get the bearish price action from the right shoulder, the next area we are looking at is the recent highs of 12040 for rejection. We will be correlating this chart with the XXXUSD charts. Goodluck and as always, trade safe!

USDOLLAR:NEW BULLISH IMPUSE COMING ? LONG VIEW + TARGETS 🔔The Dollar, finally after the release of the NPF last Friday seems to be starting to breathe today after the last sessions in which the price has fallen inexorably. We can also see that EUR/USD today started the session with the USD in recovery, link in the description. As for this chart, we can technically analyze that the price has been in a rising trend for some time, just look at the rising lows and highs that appears today a rebound on a dynamic support / trendline, the price that has moved above the 200 average and that the stocastic seems to come out of the oversold zone with divergence. Bearish volumes seem to be decreasing. We await a new bullish impulse.

Fail To Win- FAILED BULLISH TRADE ON DXYNow I'm learning to love my failures with trading because with them I find knowledge, advancement, and growth. Here on the 2h chart I placed a buy trade in a sellers market!! How hurt but happy I was to see it fail. Now on my weekly analysis for this pair, I analyzed price being bearish for the week. Why did I go bullish? Well, the overall market for DXY is bullish but price has now made it to strong supply area for a pullback. When I saw price hit a good demand area, I went for a buy in thinking it would take price higher. That was a lie. What I learned from this is to keep my bias from my higher timeframe perspective!! Always.

Fail To Win- Successful Bearish Trade on DXYTruly, I wanted to see this trade fail!! Since all my other trades do, I was expected to lose..but what gave me Hope was when price broke the HL and retested with a good bearish setup. I decided that in order for me to learn how to trade was that I have to not be afraid to fail on any trade. It is with this failure that I am able to re-analyze my trade to understand from a technical perspective on why the trade failed...but oh blessed be..the trade was successful! Failing to in order to win will be my success. In addition to this, I took a 1/1.5RR.

USDOLLAR Momentum Has shifted Up Into Jackson Hole SymposiumThe above chart shows the weekly FXCM USDOLLAR chart. We note that the higher trough followed by the higher peak has the greenback in uptrend. The momentum of this trend is defined by the gradient of the green trendline. However, we also note higher trough2 followed by higher peak2. These two points are defined by the orange trendline. I.e. the gradient has shifted upwards as the USDOLLAR’s momentum increased. We are heading into the Jackson Hole virtual symposium and market participants are looking forward to the Fed Chair’s delivery on Friday at 2:00pm GMT. The market will be listening for clues regarding the Fed’s tapering timetable and it will be interesting to see how this chart reacts, especially in relation to the steeper orange trendline.
