The US dollar index has broken the short-term triangle pattern and USD bulls are on the defensive. A break down should be expected as bears are now in control of a short-term trend.

Red line - resistance

Green line - support (broken)

The US dollar index found the short-term support at the 78.6% Fibonacci level of 94.60. The price is below the Ichimoku cloud confirming the bearish trend. Bulls need to break above the Ichimoku cloud at 96 in order to regain control of the trend.

Green line -weekly support

Red line - weekly resistance

The US dollar index is still trapped inside the trading range of the bullish flag. However, the weekly candle has entered the weekly Ichimoku cloud. This changed weekly trend to neutral. Bulls should be very cautious as bears are in control now. Only a strong bounce and breakout above 96 could shift trend to bullish again. I prefer to stay neutral over the longer-term as long as the price is inside this range.
