The US Dollar Index (DXY) is trading near 100.2 after retesting a long-standing ascending trendline that has supported it since May 2011. Despite this support, a resistance zone at 100.5 continues to cap the index's recovery. The upcoming Federal Reserve meeting on June 16-17 could influence the DXY's direction, with markets anticipating potential rate hikes.
On the monthly chart, the DXY has maintained a series of higher lows and highs over the past 15 years, suggesting a constructive long-term structure. However, the weekly chart presents a more complex picture, with the current recovery appearing as a correction within a broader downtrend. A weekly close above the 99.5 to 100 resistance zone is needed to confirm a bullish breakout.
The daily chart highlights a double bottom pattern with a target of 101.07, but resistance at 100.4 to 100.5 remains strong. An ascending wedge pattern suggests potential downward movement, with a target near 98.5. The DXY's performance is crucial for crypto investors due to its inverse correlation with Bitcoin, making the Fed's upcoming meeting a significant event for market watchers.
