The dollar was all over the place again on Wednesday
The dollar was all over the place again on Wednesday, up against the pound and down versus the yen, which suggests further weakness in the yen crosses. Keep an eye on the US CPI report, which is important.
Euro/dollar The oversold euro/dollar consolidated in a choppy manner near the bottom of the downtrend and formed another possible bullish reversal. My model remains short since July 22, so buy it only on a confirmation.
Initial support remains at 1.4860. A new pivot low is at 1.4816. Below 1.4735, distant support now moved to 1.4440.
Immediate resistance is still seen at 1.4965. Above 1.5000, the next levels are 1.5065 and 1.5110. Distant resistance is at 1.5200.
Oscillators are declining.

Sterling/dollar Sterling/dollar collapsed on Wednesday to the lowest level since October 2006 amid fresh concern of stagflation. The selling pressure should continue at a reduced pace. Again, cable remains on track for the target of a long-term head-and-shoulders pattern that targets the 1.7550 area.
