DXY extends the consolidative phase for yet another session.
Extra retracements could see the 101.00 region breached near term.

Pablo Piovano FXStreet

DXY alternates gains with losses in the low-101.00s on Thursday.

In the meantime, the index is expected to keep the choppy performance unchanged. The loss of the 101.00 region should spark further bouts of weakness to, initially, the 2023 lows in the 100.80/75 band (April 14).

Looking at the broader picture, while below the 200-day SMA, today at 106.10, the outlook for the index is expected to remain negative.

EUR/USD now picks up pace and advances to the area of daily peaks north of the 1.1800 barrier at the end of the week. The pair’s decent move higher comes against the backdrop of a generalised lack of direction in the FX galaxy and the mild offered stance in the US Dollar.

Gold flirts with four-week highs past $5,200

Gold extends its rebound, climbing for a third consecutive session and pushing back above the $5,200 mark per troy ounce on Friday.
