Technical Analysis – US dollar index rises beneath uptrend line

  • US dollar index rebounds off 103.30

  • Momentum oscillators change direction to upside

The US dollar index found a strong support level at the 103.30 barrier, breaking the long-term descending trend line to the downside. The pair is currently rising towards the 200-day simple moving average (SMA) near 104.15 and the resistance region of 104.20-104.45.

The technical oscillators are showing some positive signs. The stochastic bounced off oversold territory, while the RSI is maintaining upside pressure but still below the 50 level.

A rally beyond the aforementioned region could take the index towards the 20- and 50-day SMAs at 104.65, ahead of 105.80.

On the other hand, a potential dive could drive traders towards the latest trough of 103.30 before challenging the 102.80 support achieved on March 21.

All in all, the US dollar index switched the short-term picture to bearish, and only a climb back above the uptrend line could resume the bullish outlook.
