DXY four-hour chart

 
 
 
Although the market is retracing up, DXY remains under bearish pressure below the 97.55 resistance and the main SMAs. Next week bears might try to have another chance at the 97.00 handle. Further down lie the 97.70 and 97.50 price levels. 
  

DXY 30-minute chart

 
DXY bulls would need a breakout above the 97.55 resistance and the 200 SMA. Looking up, the next resistance probably lies near the 97.85 level.
