US Dollar Index

Brief Analysis:

After a month-long bullish trend, the dollar index has reached the boundaries of a broad potential reversal zone on a higher timeframe. Last week, the dollar index began a pullback from its upper boundary. Without an increase in the wave level of the current correction, further growth in the dollar index should not be expected.

Weekly Forecast:

Throughout the upcoming week, the dollar index is expected to fluctuate between nearby support and resistance zones. A sideways trend is likely at the beginning of the week, with a potential upward move. A shift in direction and resumption of the decline are expected towards the weekend. A breakthrough of the calculated zones within the week is unlikely.

Potential Reversal Zones

Resistance: 103.60/103.80Support: 102.70/102.50

Recommendations:

Trades: Aimed at strengthening positions in major currency pairs over the next week may be profitable but carry risks. Selling national currencies after the dollar index starts strengthening from the support zone is more promising.
