- The US Dollar Index (DXY) main bull trend is transitioning into a neutral one as DXY is coiling around 95.00 since late May.
- DXY broke above 94.43-60 zone (August 28 swing low, 100-day SMA) and reached the 50-day simple moving average (DMA) near 95.00 figure.
- The RSI, MACD and Stochastics are picking up some steam suggesting bullish momentum. Targets to the upside are seen near 95.52 (August 6 high) and 95.65 (July 19 high). A bear breakout below 93.71 (July 9 swing low) would invalidate the bullish bias.
