EUR/USD V DXY: Monthly Forecast

DXY and EUR/USD prices are again explained since December 2015 and every month thereafter by 1 and 2 year monthly averages. The commonalities to both DXY and EUR/USD averages

since December are severely oversold and despite solidly negative correlations in the upper 90's.

Secondly, as DXY and EUR/USD prices traded within its averages since December, price pressures every month are severely building to the point we see not a trend but a massive breakout. This month is no different, only worse. The first warning is upper 90's correlations can't remain forever. Both DXY and EUR/USD await the impetus to make the big move yet without the catalyst, DXY and EUR/USD remain range bound. What I see this month is more of the same ranges and its DXY causing EUR/USD and all currency pair's price move problems.

The DXY 290 pip June range is found from 96.87 to 93.97. To understand 290, January's 489 pip range was located from 100.27 to 95.38 while February ranges expanded to 599 pips from 97.53 to 91.54. February's bottom dropped. March's Fed statement stated a lower DXY was ahead from its then current price at 96.17 as the Yellen plan is lower DXY, lower WTI and higher equity prices to raise CPI. The problem with the WTI aspect is prices in the 30's and 40's before the Saudi's allowed the price fall haven't been seen holding nor a close basis since 2005 / 2004.

May saw a 438 pip range from 97.12 ­ 92.74. DXY at 290 is just under half of February's range and the current range is located at its lowest interval since December. DXY is the currency to

direct the breakout.

The 290 pip range means 98.32 V 92.52 and EUR/USD 1.1490 V 1.0910. DXY 96.87 is not only strong and powerful but the best seen on a break is 97.74 and 97.64. DXY attains 97's by breaks and hold at 95.42 then 95.53, 95.85, 96.00, 96.06, 96.48, 96.64, 96.87 average, then on to 97.04, 97.09, 97.13, 97.33, 97.64 and 97.74. Without the impetus, don't look for 96.87 to break.

DXY bottoms are held by 95.53, 95.36, 95.32, 95.23, 94.77, 94.65, 94.43 and 94.01. The big DXY bottoms are 93.98 and the average break at 93.97 then on to 93.31, 93.07. At Bottoms, EUR/USD still doesn't break 1.1552.

EUR/USD despite big break point at 1.1090, solid bottoms exist at first 1.0989, 1.0927, 1.0874, 1.0872, 1.0869, 1.0836 and 1.0820. Then EUR/USD heads to 1.0755's. EUR/USD breaks

1.1090 by 1.1146, 1.1136, 1.1108. Then break 1.1090 targets next 1.1045, 1.1038, then begins 1.0989 and the series from above.

Higher for EUR/USD and sell points are found at 1.1223, 1.1255, 1.1259, 1.1268, 1.1304, 1.1324, 1.1346. Big break is found at 1.1372. EUR/USD achieves 1.1552 by further breaks at 1.1466, 1.1478, 1.1539.

Overall EUR/USD range 1.1090 to 1.1372 and DXY 96.87 to 93.97.

For the month, DXY and EUR/USD are looking at about 200 pip ranges. Big break outs above are not expected but rather more range trading is the order of the month. What ranges reveal possibly is Yellen fails to raise in June with promises towards July. In my estimation, Yellen lacks an adequate justification, a reason, a purpose to raise.
