DXY daily chart

 
The US dollar index (DXY) is bouncing from last Friday’s retracement. The market is trading back above the main simple moving averages (SMAs). 
 

DXY four-hour chart

 
DXY created a v-shaped recovery settling above the 97.85 level and just below the ascending trendline. This week bulls will need to push the market above the 98.20 resistance in order to prevent a longer consolidation in the 97.50-97.85 range. The inverse head-and-shoulders pattern is keeping the bullish bias intact.
