USD Index - A rising wedge?


Are we forming an ending diagonal in the USD Index? As can be seen in the daily chart above (Click on chart for larger image), there appears to be a rising wedge formation in the USD Index. If this wedge breaks to the upside, look for a false break and then the USD should weaken. However without the false break it is just a continuation pattern. This is important as the S&P 500 has hit a major extension target at 700 according to the structure that I see in the market. If this coincides with a false break higher as described above, this could be a very useful indicator to near term movement. Watch that Dollar!
