US Dollar Index Technical Analysis: Greenback bulls at a stone’s throw away from the 2018 high

  • The US Dollar Index (DXY) is trading in a bull trend above its 200-day simple moving average.  
  • DXY bulls finally broke above the 96.00 figure opening the door for a test of the 2018 high at 97.00.  Technical indicators remain bullish and suggest a continuation up.  
  • A bear breakout below 95.65 would likely invalidate the bullish bias
