US Dollar Index Technical Analysis: Greenback bulls erase daily losses as they close above 96.00 figure

  • The US Dollar Index (DXY) is trading in a bull trend above the 200-day simple moving average. 
  • DXY erases early daily losses stemming from the reaction to the US mid-term elections. Bulls found support at 95.65 (multi-month resistance) and their objective is to drive the market back up to 97.00.
  • However, it remains to be seen how high the market can go as the RSI, MACD and Stochastic indicators are turning bearish.
