Technical Outlook and Review

DXY:

On the H4, with price moving above the ichimoku cloud, we have a bullish bias that price will rise to our 1st resistance of 101.085 in line with the swing high resistance, 161.8% Fibonacci extension and 78.6% Fibonacci projection from our 1st support of 100.278 in line with the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement. Alternatively, price may break 1st support and head for 2nd support at 99.434 in line with the 50% Fibonacci retracement. Our bullish bias is further supported by how price is expected to respect our ascending channel.

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 time frame, 1st resistance at 101.085
  • H4 time frame, 1st support at 100.278
  • H4 time frame, 2nd support at 99.434

Otherwise, price might break the 1st resistance level and head towards the 2nd resistance level of 1986.1
