DXY four-hour chart
DXY is trading above the 50/200 SMAs, suggesting bullish momentum. The Greenback gained some relative strength this Friday as it broke above the triangle pattern. The market is retracing down and buyers will need to defend the 98.42 and 98.20 support if they intend to lift the market towards 99.10 and 99.38 resistances. The market would need a daily close beyond 98.68 to pull away from the trading range.
