The US Dollar Index broke below the 38% retracement support and is heading towards the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement. A trend is bearish as the price is below the Ichimoku cloud moving towards lower lows and lower highs.

Red line - resistance

Green line- support

The US Dollar Index is testing the weekly cloud support. The price is trading below the weekly kijun- and tenkan-sen resistance indicators at 95.50 and 96.30. The weekly cloud is providing support and the price is now testing the upper boundary of the cloud. Entering the cloud will turn the longer-term tend neutral. The bullish flag pattern continues to be active with support near 93.40.
