In today’s webinar, we looked at a big line-in-the-sand for the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), and how a break of it could lead to a sizable down-move. With that, the Euro will of course be the most important player as it is the biggest constituent in the index. We looked a few cross-rate set-ups including but not limited to EURGBP, CHFJPY, and GBPAUD.
US Dollar (DXY) Daily Chart
Gold price is currently above the 1375 breakout threshold I’ve had penciled in as important to confirm a move higher out of the massive multi-year wedge it’s been stuck in. We may see some testing next week of the breakout, which could offer traders an opportunity to establish bullish set-ups as long as support holds.
