US Dollar Index Price Chart – USD 240min
Chart Prepared by Michael Boutros, Sr. Technical Strategist; DXY on TradingView
This proposed pitchfork we formulated in today’s webinar has the US Dollar index responding to median-line support today with the weekly opening-range is taking shape just above. A topside breach / weekly close above the 2023 high-week close at 106.10 needed to fuel the next leg higher towards the yearly high-day close at 106.37- look for a larger reaction there IF reached. Support rests at 105.31 with near-term bullish invalidation now raised to the 105-handle.
US 10yr Treasury Yield – US10YR Weekly
Chart Prepared by Michael Boutros, Technical Strategist; US10Y on TradingView
Yields on the US 10-year rebounded off the 100% extension of the April decline at 4.21 with the rally closing last week back above the 4.29/32 pivot zone- now key support again. Initial resistance is within striking distance at the 61.8% retracement around 4.53- look for a larger reaction there IF reached early in the month.
Japanese Yen Price Chart – USD/JPY Weekly
Chart Prepared by Michael Boutros, Sr. Technical Strategist; USD/JPY on TradingView
It’s worth noting that the correlation between US Treasury yields and USD/JPY has turned positive again after a short stint in negative territory. The focus is on this climb to multi-decade highs with USD/JPY pressing channel resistance (blue) into the start of the month. US Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) on tap Friday - watch the weekly close here with a topside breach exposing the next major lateral zone at 163.69-164.74. Initial weekly support now back at the June low-week reversal close at 156.73.
