The rally in the US Dollar Index $DXY is stalling out.
With each passing day, dollar internals are weakening, and the prospect of a bullish resolution from the current continuation pattern in DXY is diminishing. We expect these patterns to resolve quickly. And when they don’t, that’s information.
Some other things worth noting are that commercial hedgers hold a large short position in DXY futures and the near-term bearish trend for individual dollar crosses is expanding (up 20% from last week to a staggering 80%).
The bottom line is evidence continues to stack against the USD.
With that as our backdrop, let’s check in on a long USD trade that was triggered in November and outline how we want to navigate the coming days and weeks.
