Earlier this week, the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) turned higher as indicators flashed bullish signals. And by mid-week, the Euro (EURUSD) has triggered sell signals after turning lower.
The Euro currency has a strong trading setup for a short-term move lower.
This reversal pattern has a trading trigger on a break below 1.1825. Given the structure of both the US Dollar DXY and Euro EURUSD, I believe this will be confirmed and see further bearish price action on the Euro (and bullish on the US Dollar). But patience is required for traders and a watchful eye for inter-market analysts.
If confirmed, the initial trading target is 1.172 (a MOB band). But the Euro could fall to 1.16 if selling picks up steam. A weaker Euro and stronger US Dollar should impact select commodities adversely.
