For weeks we’ve been tracking a technical support zone near the objective yearly range lows in the US Dollar Index around 101.29. Last week marked a massive reversal-candle that nearly encompassed the last four-weeks range. The rebound off key support is now approaching a key pivot zone at 102.99-103.49- a region defined by the 2016 high-close, the January low-week close, and the objective 2023 yearly open. Look for a larger reaction there IF reached with key near-term support now raised to the yearly low-day close at 101.58. Review my latest US Dollar technical forecast.

The threat remains for a larger correction in gold while below key resistance at 2040/50- a region defined by the April high-day close, the yearly (record) high-day close and the 2022 high-day close. Initial support rests with the April 14th reversal close at 2004 and the objective May open at 1995- losses below this threshold would risk a larger correction towards 1950.

Crude oil is testing a critical support zone for the third consecutive week at 69.19-71.52- a region defined by the March low-week close, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the yearly range and the 2022 low-week close. Although a deep intra-week stretch did briefly mark a new yearly low, price has been unable to close below this region. Look for possible price inflection off this mark in the days ahead. Review my latest Crude Oil technical forecast.
