The US Dollar Index (DXY) maintains its position on daily gains, hovering around 104.50 during European trading hours on Friday. The analysis of the daily chart indicates an ongoing bullish bias as the index moves upwards within an ascending channel.

In terms of resistance, the DXY could appreciate toward a four-month high of 105.45 level, which was marked on November 6.
