Although the initial reaction after the comments from Janet Yellen in Jackson Hole was bearish for the Dollar, buyers entered the market and reversed the trend with the index spiking above both the cloud and trend line resistance.

Green line - long-term supportPrice has bounced off the green trend line support confirming the important of the 94 support level. Price is now testing the resistance of the weekly tenkan-sen indicator but we need to remind ourselves that we are still below the weekly cloud.
