The dollar index has met a resistance at 93.8 in its downtrend and is likely to resume it this week. 92.6 is the support it has to break to continue further which is also a long term strong support. The daily MACD has crossed up, so it could be a range bound week.

Dollar Index current review
The US dollar weakness in july seem to have halted for the time being as the MACD on daily chart has crossed to upside indicating halt in downward momentum. So Dollar index is likely to be in a rangebound condition for next few days. Also 92.5 to 93 is a good long term support level where it has bounced from. If the chart forms a double bottom here at 93, then it would test 95 in coming week. Euro likely to test 1.2 level and that would be likely bottom of dollar index.
Continuation of Japanese Yen strength
Yen failed to break the resistance at 114.20 and has fallen back into the range of 111 and 114. With weakness of dollar index and doubt over next FOMC action, Yen is set to test 111 support base again. However, with a negative rate policy of japanese central bank, 110.5 would be difficult to break. Yen crosses like GBPJPY, CHFJPY are set to fall more than other yen crosses.
USD index view before March NFP
Today's NFP report is crucial for the 2016 year as the jobs report would decide whether FOMC would continue with their plan of interest rate hike further into 2016. Should the jobs number comes out less than expected, there is less than 50% chance FOMC would go ahead with rate hike. With that in place, Euro, Yen, Pound are set to rise from their current lows and might reverse the downtrend.
Euro has crucial support around 1.0850 ans is again set to test 1.1.
Euro crosses against weaker currencie…

GBPCAD cross range trade
The GBPCAD cross has been range bound since Feb 2014 between 1.81 to 1.85
It had an initial surge at the beginning of the year with 1000 pips rise with GBP strength.

GBPUSD is quite strong in a upward channel and is expected to remain range bound or rise to 1.72-1.73
So, the GBPCAD cross is expected to bounce from the base of the trading range as shown…

The AUDUSD has been range bound for last 2 months after a ralley from 0.86

Anticipating USDJPY breakout
The USDJPY has been range bound in a tight range of 105 -100.5 since the beginning of the 2014 and half the year is already passed.
I am anticipating a breakout out of the descending traingle with a big trend developing in the remaining 6 months.
A monthly USDJPY chart is showing a very strong support-resistance at 101. 5 and thats why the pair has been testing that level so many times, but with each test the next bounce is getting smaller.
The breakout above 101.5 in december was quickly rever…

USDCAD at an important support
The USDCAD pair sits on an multiweek support-resistance.
Also, the uptrendline on daily chart is just broken on a closing basis, however the horizontal level seems intact.
The CAD strengthening was seemingly related to crude oil spike from Iraq crisis and may not last.
So USDCAD is expected to bounce from here towards 1.1 level again.
In case the crude rises further and CAD strenghthens, next support would only be at 1.0-0.8
The thursday NFP if positive would boost USD and cause USDCAD bounce.

JPY at the old support-resistance
For the initial 5 months of 2014, USDJPY has been pretty range bound and has formed a rising channel after a long uptrend since october 2012. The channel is broken now and USDJPY is expected to move down to 97-98 level.
The channel width is about 900 pips, so it would go down till 94 by year end, however by august, it would be around 97.5.
