The run to the downside paused above the key 103.93 level, both at a chart point and intersecting with the key trendline.
The significance of 103.93 is it is the last at LOW BEFORE THE HIGH AND THUS THE KEY LEVEL ON THIS CHART. A firm break would be needed to confirm the end of the USD uptrend.
On the upside, still bearish if it stays below 104.61.

I may (not) have news for you: your cell phone me will likely be blind and IF you happen to have a landline your broker may be too busy to take your call as most access now is by way of chatbot
Internals in stocks are flatlining, so either stcks and euro pop or drop soon, I may entertain the short side. All the shorts from last night went fine.
I hope you found my tip on fading corrections helpful.
Note, EURUSD for example, failed just above the 1.0840 (and 50%) level. Then there was more difficulty absorbing buying and it has been in a slow climb since BUT that would only have legs if the high of the day is taken out.
interesting …

If neel k wanted my nickle’s worth: the FED’s monetary policy is nowhere near exerting downward pressure on the economy.
I d still inform him that it is NOT an unknown and that he should get in line with his chairman’s “higher for longer”. ditto for williams.
I am currently bit perplexed what game these two suits are playing.
XAUUSD CAME CLOSE TO 2400 BUT HAS BACKED AWAT. MAJOR LEVEL REMAINS ABOVE 2400.
RISJ IS STILL POINTED UP AS LONG AS IT STAYS ABOVE 2351 (DOES THIS LEVEL, I.E. 2350, SOUND FAMILIAR> BUT ANYTHING OTHER THAN A BREAK OF 2430 KEEPS THE CURRENT RANGE.
As I noted last night, the only level that matters to me is 155 as that will set the overall bias.
Weak Japanese GDP data seems to have been the catalyst for a move back above 155. To suggest more scope on the rebound, 155.50 would probably need to be cleared.
dlr downtrend theme ?
williams helping ignite animal spirits:
–
Williams said April’s U.S. inflation data was a “positive” development after a string of disappointments and he said the overall price trend “looks reasonably good.”
“I try not to take too much signal from one month or two months and look at the broader context of of the inflation trends. So I do think it’s a kind of a positive development after a few months where the data were disappointing, but you don’t want to over emphasize any one month or another month reading,” Williams said…
