Hi Traders! Dollar Index short term forecast and technical analysis is here. The way I would like to analyze the chart for setups is based on multi-timeframe confirmations because in my POV if we get more evidences on different timeframes for the same direction then it makes the setup much more reliable. If you would like to learn more about the way we trade and the technical analysis we use then check out the Traders Academy Club Spoiler alert – free memberships are available! Let’s start our analysis from the highest timeframe which will be the daily chart here.
You can watch the video explanation of this idea here
On the daily chart, the price which is moving higher has currently reached a strong resistance zone. We also have a potential bearish divergence that is forming between the first high that has formed at 92.381 and the second high that has formed at 93.174 based on the MACD indicator which we may consider as evidence of bearish pressure. Also, based on the Stochastic Oscillator we could see that the price has reached its extreme which we may consider as yet another evidence of bearish pressure. We may now move down to one timeframe lower and look for evidences supporting this bearish view.
On the H4 chart, the price is currently moving inside a range. This range is formed by the highs and lows reaching parallel support and resistance zones. The price which is moving inside this range has currently reached the top of it. In addition to this, we have a bearish divergence that has formed between the first high that has formed at 92.810 and the second high that has formed at 93.174 based on the MACD indicator which we may consider as evidence of bearish pressure. Also, based on the Volumes indicator we could see that the volumes are dropping, we may consider this as another evidence of bearish pressure. So the bottom line here is that the H4 chart has evidences supporting the bearish view.
Looking at the H1 chart, we could see that the price which is moving higher has created multiple false breaks with bearish divergence between the first high that has formed at 93.027 and the second high that has formed at 93.174 based on the MACD indicator which we may consider as evidence of bearish pressure. In addition to this, based on the Volumes indicator we could see that the volumes are dropping here as well, we may consider this as yet another evidence of bearish pressure. So everything looks good here for the bears, if the price moves lower and if we get a valid breakout below the low at 92.932 we may then consider it as a validation for the bearish view and may expect the price to move lower further in the short term.
