US President Trump: Iran will no longer be able to mock the United States.According to Saudi media alhadath, citing Israeli media reports, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu will speak with US President Trump by phone tonight.The Azov Brigade of Ukraine claimed that it used AI-assisted drones to strike deep into Russian-controlled Mariupol, hitting targets 160 kilometers behind the front lines. The Azov Brigade stated that this was a symbolic "return" to the city.On May 11, French President Emmanuel Macron, who was visiting Kenya on May 10, stated that France had "never considered" any "deployment" in the Strait of Hormuz. In response to plans by France and the UK to send additional warships to the Red Sea and the waters surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Gharibabadi posted on social media on May 10 that any external military deployment under the guise of "protecting shipping" would "no less exacerbate the crisis and militarize this crucial waterway." Only Iran can guarantee the security of the strait and will not allow any country to interfere.On May 11, following reports that Iran had responded to the US ceasefire proposal, Sultan Barakat, a professor at Hamad bin Khalifa University in Qatar, warned against expecting a swift breakthrough in negotiations. Barakat stated that a comprehensive peace agreement is still a long way off, and this should not be considered the end of the US-Iran conflict for an extended period. He pointed out that Iran has accumulated considerable resentment during the war; the deaths of its supreme leader and his family, numerous senior officials, and the immense destruction caused by the war have made it difficult for the Iranian people to trust the United States. However, both sides hope to extend the ceasefire as long as possible and use it as a starting point for gradually resolving various issues through negotiations. Barakat noted that Iran initially hoped for a comprehensive peace agreement but has now shifted to a phased approach. He speculated that Iran might want to restore navigation through the Strait of Hormuz and propose a joint oversight plan with the US.

Price Analysis of the US Dollar Index: DXY Retreats from 104.00, Rising Wedge Anticipated

During Thursday's Asian session, the US Dollar Index (DXY) fails to continue the previous two days' upward momentum, trading on the defensive around 103.95.

 

In doing so, the dollar index remains near the 20-year high reached earlier in the week, but for the first time in three days, the daily decline is recorded.

 

In addition to highlighting a 12-day-old rising wedge bearish pattern surrounding the multi-day top, the DXY's most recent decline also reveals a multi-day top-adjacent rising wedge formation. The slow RSI also highlights the significance of the chart pattern.

 

However, a decisive breach below 102.90 is required to validate the potential decline to 101.30.

 

During the fall, the 100-SMA and monthly low between 102.65 and 102.35 will serve as intermediate stops.

 

Until the quote continues below the indicated wedge's resistance line, approximately 104.30 as of press time, a recovery appears elusive.

 

After that, a slow climb to the September 2002 high of 109.80 cannot be ruled out.
