DXY Price Analysis: Technical Correction Ahead

  • DXY is under pressure after hitting new cycle highs.
  • Overbought conditions should trigger a technical move.

The US Dollar Index (DXY) rose to new almost 20-year highs around 108.60 on Tuesday, though lost some ground afterwards.

The dollar continues to rise on the short-term horizon, with the next target at the October 2002 high at 108.74. However, overbought conditions could trigger a technical correction to initially the post-FOMC June high at 105.78 (June 15).

As long as the index trades above the 5-month line around 103.00, the short-term outlook for DXY should remain constructive.

Also, the broader bullish view remains intact as long as it is above the 200 SMA at 98.59.
