US DOLLAR TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices slipped back below the 23.6% Fibonacci expansion at 10820, exposing the 14.6% level at 10772. A further push below that eyes the July 29 low at 10693. Alternatively, a move back above 10820 targets the 38.2% expansion at 10899.

S&P 500 TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices put in a Hanging Man candlestick below resistance at 1710.90, the 100% Fibonacci expansion, hinting at indecision and warning a turn lower may be ahead. Near-term support is at 1687.40, the May 22 high, followed by the 76.4% Fib at 1675.10. Alternatively, a break above resistance aims for the 123.6% Fib at 1746.70.
