Fri, Oct 19 2007, 02:28 GMT
by Cornelius Luca
The dollar plunged on Thursday amid heightened expectations that the US economy is quickly headed for recession and that the Federal Reserves will be forced to cut borrowing costs as early as the end of the month. Its weakness should continue.
Euro/dollar
Euro/dollar climbed to a new high for its lifetime. Given that it failed to make even a brief pullback on Thursday, the euro/dollar should edged further up today
Above 1.4343, strong resistance is seen only at 1.4400. Distant resistance is at 1.4500.
It has initial support at 1.4243. This is followed by 1.4195. Further supports are at 1.4145 and 1.4045.
Oscillators are rising.
NEAR-TERM: Slightly bullish
MEDIUM-TERM: Bullish
LONG-TERM: Bullish
Dollar/yen
Dollar/yen fell sharply to an over two-week low on Thursday and broke the support of a rising trendline. Further weakness is likely here.

Immediate resistance is at 116.00. The key level remains 116.85 from another 50-point pivot that targets 116.35 and 117.35.
