DXY daily chart chart
Last week, DXY experienced its largest weekly decline since April 1986 as the greenback challenged the 50-day simple moving average on the daily chart.
DXY four-hour chart
DXY is trying to find some footing above the 98.25 level and the main SMAs as a close above the 100.00 psychological level remains for now illusive. However, a move beyond the above-mentioned level can open the doors to the 100.50 and 101.50 resistances on the way up. On the flip side, bears would need to have a daily close below the 98.00 figure to extend the bearish leg from last week.
