US DOLLAR TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices may be gearing up for a turn lower after prices produced a bearish Dark Cloud Cover candlestick pattern. Near-term support is at 11211, the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement, with a break below that on a daily closing basis exposing the 11143-55 area (October 3 high, 38.2% level). Alternatively, a reversal above the 50% Fib expansion at 11295 clears the way for a test of the 61.8% Fib threshold at 11329.



S&P 500 TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices appear poised to move to another record high, challenging resistance marked by the 23.6% Fibonacci expansion at 2051.00. A break above this barrier on a daily closing basis exposes the 38.2% level at 2081.20. Alternatively, a reversal below the 14.6% Fib at 2032.30 aims for resistance-turned-support at 2022.10, the September 19 high.



GOLD TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices are treading water below resistance in the 1178.86-80.84 area marked by the December 2013 low and the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement. Near-term support is at 1131.11, the 76.4% Fibonacci expansion, with a break below that on a daily closing basis exposing the 100% level at 1092.78. Alternatively, a push above resistance targets the 38.2% retracement at 1212.23.



CRUDE OIL TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – Prices are attempting to mount a recovery after setting yet another four-year low. A daily close back above the 50% Fibonacci expansion at 80.46 exposes the 38.2% level at 82.22. Alternatively, downward resumption through the 61.8% Fib at 78.70 targets the 76.4% expansion at 76.53.
