DXY four-hour chart

 
DXY is trading in a tight bull channel and is retracing down slightly below the 99.00 figure. Although the bias remains bullish, the market can be exhausted and at risk for a pullback down towards the 98.50 and 98.20 levels. On the flip side, if the buyers overcome the 99.00 mark, then the uptrend can extend towards the 99.40 level.
