The US Dollar Index, an average of the greenback's value against six major currencies, has apparently ran into resistance. Price action has been contained in an upward-sloping channel established in June and is now squarely at the upper boundary showing an Inverted Hammer candlestick. While this type of signal typically requires next-day confirmation, it does present a compelling case for a broad correction of USD strength across the major currency pairs in the near term before the broader appreciation regains momentum.
