- The US Dollar Index (DXY) has found some resistance at 95.52 on Monday and the market has been rotating lower ever since.
- Bears objective is to break below the 95.00 in order to target 94.91 July 27 high and then 94.61 August 2, low.
- On the flip side, bulls want to support the market and prevent the breakout below 95.00 from happening. If bulls can manage to break above Wednesday’s high at 95.42, some bears might give up as they could see it as the resumption of the bull trend.
