DXY Weekly Price Chart (US Dollar Index)
Notes: In last month‘s DXY Weekly Technical Outlook our ’bottom line noted that the dollar had, “turned from a multi-year slope inflection with price now threatening a break of below 2018 uptrend support. IF price is indeed heading lower, advances should be capped by 97.42 with a break lower from here targeting the critical support confluence around the 94-handle.”
The index failed to close below the 38.2% line of the descending 2015/2017 pitchfork (blue) with the recovery now testing basic trendline resistance extending off the 2017 & 2018 highs (red). Weekly resistance remains with the high-week close a 97.42 with a breach above key resistance at 97.87 needed to fuel the next leg higher in the Dollar. Yearly open support rests at 95.66 with a break / close below the weekly low-close at 95.62 needed to put the shorts back in control targeting the 200-week moving average / 2018 trendline around ~94.40s.

Bottom line: The US Dollar rally is approaching levels that could threaten the recovery with the advance at risk ahead of 97.42. From a trading standpoint, a good spot to reduce long-exposure / raise protective stops. Well be on the lookout for possible price exhaustion in this region to offer near-term opportunities for a pullback.
