DXY rising puts pressure on commodities

Long
TVC:DXY   U.S. Dollar Index
DXY on the daily chart hit a pivot top in early March and then 9 trading days ago a pivot

bottom and reversal. While trending down, a weakening dollar in general supports rising

commodity prices. The converse is likewise applicable. This week with increasing strength

of the dollar, upward price action of commodities may be challenged. The predictive algo

( Echo indicator by Luxalgo ) predicts the dollar strength rise will continue in the immediate

term future. The zero-lag MACD with its k/D lines rising and parallel is further confirmation.

I conclude that positive price action in oil, metals and agricultural commodities may face

dollar strength resistance while forex pairs containing the dollar may move in the dollar's

direction, absent conflicting or confounding factors otherwise.
