DXY: USD Flexes Muscle - Pairs SlideFriday, July 25, 2025 The foreign exchange markets are experiencing a pronounced USD bullish session this morning, with the US Dollar Index (DXY) showing robust gains of +0.35% while simultaneously pressuring all major currency pairs into negative territory. The Japanese Yen (JPY) is bearing the brunt of this dollar strength, currently registering losses between -0.4% to -0.66% across JPY pairs. This market behavior suggests traders should pay particularly close attention to DXY dynamics, as its movements will likely dictate price action across all major currency pairs in today's session. Technical Perspective: DXY at Critical Inflection Point A detailed examination of the Dollar Index reveals several compelling technical factors that market participants should consider: 1. Weekly Demand Zone Reaction - The DXY has demonstrated a strong rejection from a significant weekly demand area - The subsequent bullish spike indicates potential continuation of upward momentum - This price action suggests institutional buyers are defending this key level 2. Commitment of Traders (COT) Report Insights Non-commercial traders (typically hedge funds and speculators) have increased their positions from a bottom level not seen since June 2021 meanwhile the Commercial traders (often corporations hedging FX exposure) show opposing extreme positioning. This stark divergence between trader categories often precedes significant market moves 3. Seasonal Patterns Favor USD Strength - Historical seasonal analysis indicates the current period typically supports dollar appreciation - The combination of technical and seasonal factors creates a potentially powerful bullish setup ✅ Please share your thoughts about DXY in the comments section below and HIT LIKE if you appreciate my analysis.

DXY Poised for Bullish Expansion After Accumulation PhaseThe DXY appears to be completing a corrective phase, transitioning into a potential accumulation zone. Price action shows signs of compression, reduced volatility, and higher lows, suggesting that sellers are losing momentum while buyers begin to absorb liquidity. This behavior often precedes an expansion phase. If current structure holds, we may soon see a bullish breakout, with price aiming to reclaim previous highs or key resistance levels. A confirmed breakout above the immediate consolidation range could provide a strong signal for long setups. I'm watching for: A clear break and retest of local resistance Bullish confirmation via volume or momentum indicators (e.g., RSI or MACD crossover) Continuation patterns (flags or bullish order blocks) As always, risk management is key.

NFP Volatility Ahead – Is the Dollar Ready to Break Higher?🟢 DXY Outlook – A Key Day for the Dollar Index Yesterday’s monthly candle closed with strong bullish momentum, marking a powerful start to August. Today, on the first trading day of the month, we’re expecting three major U.S. economic releases: NFP, Average Hourly Earnings (m/m), and the Unemployment Rate. As discussed in last week’s outlook, DXY has successfully broken above the key 100 level and confirmed a monthly close above it — a significant technical development. With no major order blocks or visible resistance in the way, the path toward the 102 target appears technically clear. That said, I anticipate mixed data from today’s releases — which means we could see both sides of liquidity being taken during the initial reaction. Price might dip toward lower zones temporarily to collect liquidity before resuming its bullish move toward 102. 📌 In summary: From a swing perspective, I believe the direction remains bullish for the Dollar Index as long as we hold above the 100 level. When I say the data might be “mixed,” I mean the market could show an initial drop toward lower zones at the time of release — not because of a reversal, but to grab liquidity before continuing higher toward the 102 target. Unless we see something unexpectedly extreme in the numbers, I expect the DXY to remain on track to reach the 102 level in the coming days or next week. 🔁 This analysis will be updated whenever necessary. Disclaimer: This is not financial advice. Just my personal opinion.

DXY for this week Technical Analysis – Inverse Head & Shoulders with Neckline Retest Current Market Situation The chart shows an Inverse Head & Shoulders pattern, which is a bullish reversal pattern. The neckline has been broken to the upside, providing a strong signal for potential continued bullish momentum. The price is currently in the neckline retest phase, a critical area to confirm the bullish trend before further upward movement. Key Zones Retest Zone (Pullback): 98.300 – 98.700, an important support area. Demand Zone: If price dips further, an additional support zone lies between 97.500 – 97.000. Monthly Trendline: Offers long-term structural support, reinforcing the bullish outlook. Potential Scenarios ✅ Bullish Scenario (Preferred): If the price holds above the retest zone and neckline: Target 1: 101.000 Target 2: 102.500 – 103.500 ⚠ Bearish Scenario (Invalidation): A break below 97.000 invalidates the bullish scenario and opens the door for deeper downside movement. Conclusion The market shows strong bullish potential after confirming the neckline retest. 97.000 is the key invalidation level for the bullish setup. Price action around the retest zone and demand area should be monitored closely before entering trades. ⚠️ Trade at your own risk – We are not responsible for any losses.

What now for the dollar after a poor NFP report?It is difficult not to link the bad US data to the impact of tariffs. Indeed, it certainly looks that way, especially given that the slowdown in jobs started in early Q2 when reciprocal tariffs were announced. Companies expecting margins to be squeezed by higher duties probably thought twice about hiring workers in order to keep costs down. So, the US labour market has been losing steam fast, undoubtedly due to tariff concerns. Unless the data surprises on the upside soon, the Fed may have no choice but to cut—and cut again. Against this backdrop, the recovery in the dollar is going to a long bumpy road. We noted the area around 100.00 to be resistance in the previous update, and that level has held, thanks to the weak jobs report (and ISM survey that was released later). The DXY was testing potential support around 98.95 at the time of writing. Will it be able to bounce there? Break that on a closing basis and next week could bring more technical dollar selling.

USD Re-Tests a Familiar Area of SupportBack in April the US Dollar was dropping like a rock. While the sell-off in stocks had stalled by the time we got to Easter, the bearish trend in USD was in full-force, going along with a strong breakout in Gold and many major FX pairs. But it was the low on Easter Monday that finally stalled matters for a bit. That price came in right around the 98.00 level, and led to four weeks of strength, including through the May FOMC rate decision, all the way until the 102-handle came into play. That's where the music stopped for the USD rally in Q2, and sellers went back for another push down to fresh lows that ultimately showed with a fresh three-year-low on day one of Q3. Since then, however, bears have been stalled and there's a couple of different supporting backdrops there, such as the oversold readings that had shown on both the daily and the weekly as we came into Q3, or the falling wedge formation that had built as sellers remained really aggressive at highs or tests of resistance while less so around lows or tests of support. And it's not like July was all that bullish of a month for the USD as we heard Trump continue to press his desire for low rates, including threats to fire FOMC Chair Jerome Powell. And at this stage, markets are pricing in a rate cut in September, along with another by the end of the year and possibly two. So expectations on rates are really low yet, on a relative basis, the USD has held up somewhat well. At this point we're at another major test with the USD re-testing that same spot of support that had come into play in April, around the 98.00 handle in DXY. There's more context for support in the USD down to around 97.60, which helps to create a zone. For USD-weakness, I still think GBP/USD remains as attractive, but for USD-strength, EUR/USD could be an interesting case given the Fibonacci resistance that's started to show there. - js

DOLLAR INDEX DXYThe U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) is a measure of the value of the United States dollar (USD) relative to a basket of six major foreign currencies. It reflects how strong or weak the dollar is compared to these currencies collectively. The index was created by the Federal Reserve in 1973 The six currencies included in the basket and their approximate weightings are: Euro (EUR): 57.6% Japanese Yen (JPY): 13.6% British Pound Sterling (GBP): 11.9% Canadian Dollar (CAD): 9.1% Swedish Krona (SEK): 4.2% Swiss Franc (CHF): 3.6% The DXY is calculated as a weighted geometric average of the dollar's exchange rates against these currencies. When the dollar strengthens against this basket, the index rises; when it weakens, the index falls. The index is widely used by traders, investors, and economists to gauge the overall strength of the U.S. dollar in global currency markets and to inform trading and economic decisions. In essence, the Dollar Index provides a standardized barometer of the U.S. dollar's value against its major international trading partners' currencies. The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) is trading near 98.684 of August 1, Friday market close. July saw the DXY record its first monthly gain in 2025 (rising nearly 1%) as a a result of the demand floor on ascending trendline acting as dynamic support .but selling has resumed at the start of August on ADP data report, the current supply roof presents resistance to upswing capping gains on economic outlook and immigration enforcement concern. Key Fundamental Drivers (August 2025): Fed Policy & Inflation: The Federal Reserve kept rates steady at 4.25–4.50% in July, but persistent inflation (core PCE up to 2.8% YoY in June) and the impact of new U.S. tariffs are keeping rate cuts on hold for now. Tariffs & Trade Policy: Fresh, globally-applied U.S. tariffs announced at the end of July have heightened risk aversion, helped the dollar find support, and stirred inflation concerns—as import price increases feed into core inflation data. Interest Rate Differentials: While the Fed holds rates high, other central banks (especially the ECB and BOE) are signaling further easing. The resulting policy divergence still gives the dollar some support, but large inflows into alternative markets (e.g., eurozone equities, gold, yen) have also pressured the greenback. Safe-Haven Flows: Risk-off sentiment amid trade tension and global policy uncertainty continues to prompt investors to seek the relative safety of the dollar, limiting its downside. Composition: The DXY measures the value of USD relative to a basket of currencies: euro (57.6%), yen (13.6%), pound (11.9%), Canadian dollar (9.1%), Swedish krona (4.2%), and Swiss franc (3.6%). The path ahead depends on upcoming U.S. inflation prints, additional Fed commentary, and how global markets react to ongoing trade disputes and central bank moves. Longer term, The DXY remains under pressure at the start of August 2025 but is showing tentative signs of stabilization just below the key 100 mark. The trend will hinge on Fed policy, global inflation data, and the impact of new tariffs on both inflation and global risk appetite. If buying breaks and close above weekly resistance roof then 104-103 can be reclaimed. trading is 100% probability ,manage your risk and know that any key level can fail. #dollar #dxy #money #eurusd #gbpusd #audusd #usdjpy

DXY: Weekly OutlookWeekly DXY Outlook On the weekly chart, the US Dollar Index (DXY) has reached a critical zone that was last tested in February 2022. While a rebound is not guaranteed, the fact that the DXY has declined nearly 12% over just six months—despite a resilient U.S. economy—suggests the potential for renewed strength in the dollar. I think the index could begin a recovery toward key levels at 100.00, 101.97, and possibly 106.00/ It’s worth noting that the broader bearish trend began with the trade tensions initiated during the Trump administration, which strained relations with several major trading partners. Given that this is a weekly chart, it should be used more as a reference point rather than a trading signal. You may find more details in the chart! Thank you and Good Luck!

DXY Trend AnalysisTechnicals: The DXY is sitting near its pivot, with technical momentum remaining mildly bearish, but oversold conditions suggest a potential for a bullish bounce. If the 97.55 support is broken decisively, further downside is likely. Upside is capped by resistance at 98.64; a break above this may confirm a short-term reversal to the upside. Key Levels to Watch Pivot Level: 98.12 Key Support: 97.55 Key Resistance: 98.64 Fundamentals: - Persistent US twin deficits, reduced safe-haven flows, and a global trend of diversifying away from dollar assets all present headwinds. - The spread between US yields and foreign peers is at historic highs, but with the Fed expected to ease and global growth forecasts improving, the dollar's advantage is eroding. - Safe-haven demand could temporarily support the dollar in response to global shocks, but is not expected to reverse the broader downtrend this year.

DXY 8H – Rejected Key Resistance, Can the Dollar Bounce Back?The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) just got rejected off a key 8H supply zone near the psychological 100 level — failing to reclaim a level that previously acted as major support. With EMAs flattening and macro uncertainty rising, the dollar’s next move will have big implications across global markets. 🔹 Price Structure The $100–$101.50 zone acted as support for months before breaking — and DXY just got rejected on its first retest. The next resistance levels are stacked at $104, $108, and $110, each tied to prior breakdown points and macro peaks. If DXY can't reclaim $100, a slide toward EMA support at ~$98 or even new lows remains in play. 🔹 EMA Signals Price currently hovers between the EMA 50 and EMA 100 — an indecision zone often preceding trend continuation or reversal. A breakdown below both EMAs would confirm momentum is stalling, while a reclaim of $100 could reignite the bullish push. 🔹 Implications for Risk Assets If the dollar weakens from here, we could see renewed upside in crypto and equities. Conversely, a reclaim and surge toward $104+ would likely pressure risk-on markets. Is the DXY topping out — or just gearing up for another leg higher? Let’s talk macro 👇
