DXY gained steam until the end of the week where it is now trading above the 100.50 level and the main SMAs suggesting bullish momentum in the medium term. Buyers are likely looking for a continuation to the upside with the 101.00 handle as first hurdle followed by 101.50 en route to 103.00, the 2020 tops.
