Bloomberg: US Dollar Index Technical Analysis: Trump’s pick could have killed of the DXY raly The US Dollar Index (DXY) eased somewhat during the Asian trading session on the back of President-elect Donald Trump’s nomination of Scott Bessent for the Treasury position. A knee-jerk reaction could be taking place as this weakness has been fully erased and might see the DXY advance further. On the upside, 107.35 remains key before looking for any levels above 108.00. The fresh two-year high at 108.07 seen on November 22 is the first level to beat next. Further up, the 109.00 big figure level is the next one in line to look at. The support from October 2023 at 109.36 is certainly a level to watch out for on the topside. Support comes in around 106.52, the double top from May. A touch lower, the pivotal 105.53 (April 11 high) should avoid any downturns towards 104.00. Should the DXY fall all the way towards 104.00, the big figure and the 200-day Simple Moving Average at 103.98 should catch any falling knife formation. submitted by /u/Denchock |
