2012 Forecast: USD to Strengthen Further in First Half of 2012

The US dollar is expected to outperform other major currencies in the first half of 2012. The key reasons for the greenback's glitter are the ongoing sovereign debt crisis in the Eurozone and the relatively strong economic improvement in the US. It is, however, rather difficult to forecast the outlook of the US dollar in the second half of the year as uncertainties related to the pace of recovery in European economies, fiscal tightening in the US and the FED's implementation of QE3 heighten. Moreover, the ability for China to avoid hard landing would be another factor affect USD's outlook.

USD index 2012 Elliott Wave Forecast

Despite falling to as low as 72.70 in H1 2011, dollar index found good support there and staged a rebound from there back to the opening level of 2011, suggesting the major downtrend is not ready to resume yet and wave IV correction is still unfolding as a complex correction. We are keeping our preferred count that a major (A)-(B)-(C) wave has commenced since 1980s with (A) wave ended at 78.19 in 1992, followed by a 3-legged wave (B) ended at 121.02 in 2001 and 5-waver wave (C) is unfolding with wave III ended at 70.70 in 2008.

Orders and Options Watch

US Session: Orders and Options Watch

EUR: The single currency tumbled again today and stops below 1.2850 option barrier were triggered and despite market talk of ECB buying Italian debt and European corps buying euro, the pair extended decline to 1.2803 and mixture of bids (from semi-official account in good size) and stops at 1.28000 (option barrier) is now in focus but more buying interest is tipped further out at 1.2750.

Forex Trade Ideas

Trade Idea Update: USD/CHF – Buy at 0.9410

Dollar’s rally and the breach of previous resistance at 0.9470 add credence to our bullish view that low has been formed at 0.9305 and bullishness remains for the rise from 0.9245 to extend headway to 0.9500-10, however, near term overbought condition should prevent sharp move beyond recent high of 0.9549 and price should falter well below 0.9590-00, bring correction later.

Trade Idea: AUD/USD – Buy at 1.0175

As aussie has continued to move lower after retreating from this week’s high of 1.0387, suggesting further consolidation below this level would take place and near term downside risk remains for retracement of recent rise to 1.0250 and possibly to 1.0190-00, however, renewed buying interest should emerge around 1.0175-80 and bring another rise later. Above said resistance at 1.0387 would extend the move from 0.9667 for gain towards 1.0450/55
