- DXY has once again failed to extend the breakout of the critical 96.00 milestone on sustainable basis today, although it remains lingering over that key level so far.
- The greenback needs to advance beyond the low-96.00s, where coincide recent peaks, a Fibo retracement of the 2017-2018 drop at 96.04 and the short term resistance line, today at 96.16.
- If the up move gathers serious traction, the YTD peak in levels just shy of 97.00 the figure should emerge on the horizon.
