A bearish cross was made between the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) and the 50-day SMA on Friday, as the US Dollar Index (DXY) closed below the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). After moving sideways near 50 in the past couple of weeks, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) dropped below 50.
As a key support, psychological level 102.00 (static level) aligns on the downside. As long as that level is closed below on a daily basis, there is a possibility that sellers will be attracted to the price and it may slide towards 101.50 (static level) and 101.00 (static level, psychological level) for an extended period of time.
There appears to be strong resistance at 103.00 (100-day SMA, 50-day SMA, Fibonacci 38.2% retracement of the June-May uptrend). A break above that level could lead the DXY to target 103.50 (Fibonacci 23.6% retracement) and 104.00 (psychological level) in the near future.
