US Dollar Index Technical Analysis: Greenback sells-off as DXY bears erase weekly gains
- The US Dollar Index (DXY) is trading in a bull trend above the 200-day simple moving average.
- DXY rejected the 97.00 level and closed in the red. Bulls will try to support the market but they need to regain 97.00 or else a deeper pullback is to be expected. The RSI is pointing downwards while the Stochastic is in overbought territories. The MACD is slowing down slightly.
- All suggesting that a continuation of the bearish pullback is more likely with targets at 95.65 multi-month resistance and then 95.24 July 13 high.
