US Dollar Technical Analysis: Bounce Cut Short at Resistance

US Dollar Technical Analysis– Prices moved lower as expected after putting in a Bearish Engulfing candlestick pattern. A recovery has been mounted from a support cluster in the 10510-576 area, marked by the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement, the March 8 high, and a rising trend line set from mid-December 2012. A break above initial resistance at 10655 exposes the next upside barrier at 10697. Alternatively, a push below 10510 exposes the 50% Fib at 10397.
