On USD index daily chart we are observing a big sideways pattern since the start of 2015; it’s a slow and overlapping price action which is a personality of a contra-trend movement that can be completed now. It was a flat correction in black wave IV; a three wave structure where the final wave C should be made by five waves. Well, we can see a nice decline from November 2015 counted in five legs, but as an ending diagonal. That’s a reversal pattern which may send the price into a strong bullish mode in the second part of this year, after the recent recovery above 95.22 and through the red trendline resistance. That said, be aware of more gains ahead.
