Any asset class down to zero is in a position to rise. However, the index has penetrated that price support which definitely increases the yuck factor for the USD. I'm not sure who could still be selling because of the overwhelming sentiment against the buck but there's definitely an absence of buyers. If, for some reason, the price did move up, you'd probably see a great rush of short covering. In other words, the move would be violent.
The next support is the swing low of 74.16.
At this point, the index might have completed a C wave of a large ABC correction. I've marked it on the weekly chart below. There's also positive divergence with RSI on the weekly chart. That's pretty much it, though, for positive thinking Elliott Wave projections. One could also create a wave count that has this dropping below 70.90 but I don't think it's going to do that.
Here's the weekly chart:

My purpose in writing this blog is to show you how one trader, me, makes trading decisions and survives while trading Forex. One of the biggest problems I had when I first started trading was trying to apply the “rules” to actual trades. Another was the psychology—limiting losses and letting profits run. If you study my blog, you’ll see how I deal with both those issues. So my writings are not trade recommendations but rather educational in purpose. You have to decide on your own approach to trading. Remember that trading is risky.
