The euro continues to press lower, but let’s notice that the price structure is nearing a test of important support along the March-October up trendline, now at 1.4680, which must contain the weakness to avert a press to test the rising 50 DMA, now at 1.4625. If dollar strength, commodity weakness, bond strength and equity weakness remain connected at the hip, then the results of the test of major trendline could have extremely significant near- and possibly intermediate-term consequences. The ETF for the dollar is the PowerShares DB Dollar Index Bullish (NYSE: UUP) and for gold is the SPDR Gold Shares (NYSE: GLD).
