US Dollar Price Chart – USD Weekly (DXY)

US Dollar Index- DXY Weekly - USD Trade Outlook- Technical Forecast- 10-21-2024
Chart Prepared by Michael Boutros, Sr. Technical Strategist; 
DXY on TradingView

The US Dollar is attempting to mark a fourth weekly advance with the index testing confluent resistance into the start of the week at 103.69-104.08- a region defined by the 52-week moving average and the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the yearly range. Note that the 75% parallel (blue) also converges on this threshold and a breach / close above will be needed to keep the immediate advance viable.

The next major resistance zone is eyed at the July high-week reversal close at 104.87- look for a larger reaction there IF reached. Initial support rests back at the 103-handle with medium-term bullish invalidation now raised to the March low at 102.35.

Chart Prepared by Michael Boutros, Sr. Technical Strategist; USD/CAD on TradingView

USD/CAD is attempting a major breakout ahead of the Bank of Canada rate decision and the focus is on today’s close with respect to 1.3825/34- a region defined by the 2024 high-day close (HDC) and the 78.6% retracement of the August decline. A confirmed breakout here would expose the next major technical consideration at the 2022 high-close / 2023 swing high at 1.3881/99- look for a larger reaction there IF reached.

Initial support rests at 1.3745 with a break / close below the 1.37-handle needed to suggest a more significant high was registered. Stay nimble into the BoC on Wednesday and watch the weekly close here for guidance.
