The US dollar index collapsed yesterday as it broke below and out of the upward sloping channel. The price was signalling that a bearish reversal was coming as we pointed out the bearish divergence in the stochastic and the RSI a couple days back.

Red lines - bearish wedge

The US dollar index has broken below the cloud support and the upward sloping wedge. The critical support of 98.40-98.50 was broken and the price fell 1 point down. Today, we see the price bouncing, but I believe the downside move is not over yet.

In the weekly chart above, we see how the price has broken below the tenkan-sen support (red line indicator) and is now heading towards the kijun-sen (yellow line indicator) and the Ichimoku cloud near 96.50. The trend is bearish.
