US DOLLAR TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices are testing through support at 10601, a barrier marked by the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement and a falling trend line set from mid-December. A daily close below this boundary targets the 50% retracement at 10554. Alternatively, a reversal back above horizontal support-turned-resistance at 10620 exposes 10660, the 23.6% Fib level.

S&P 500 TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices are testing resistance in the 1804.80-27.90 area, a region marked a horizontal pivot cluster and a pair of rising trend lines. A break higher on a daily closing basis aims for 1847.90, the index’s 2013 closing high. Alternatively, a move reversal downward sees the first major level of medium-term support at 1773.40. A Shooting Star candlestick pattern warns of a possible reversal lower in the works.
