DIXIE looking horrid and next target 96.40Head and Shoulders has formed on Daily. It didn't even complete a decent looking right shoulder, which shows how strong the bears were to push the index.
Moving averages are all bearish with 200 >21 > 7 MA.
The interest rate hike has shifted attention to possible inflationary measures in the future for the US.
This has resulted in Investors taking their money out of the US Dollar and putting it in Euro...
So the first target is 96.40.
EXPLAINED DIXIE (US Dollar Currency Index) What, why where, how?The US Dollar has been in the limelight and not in a good way. In fact, he US dollar has not been dimmer since 22 September 2022 where it was trading at 114.42.
Currently it’s at 103.90 (9.19%) down…
But what does it all mean?
Why is the Dixie such a popular index to understand, and trade.
You see it in the news every time you turn on Bloomberg and you see it in the publications. So we might as well understand it for the next time they mention the Dixie.
IN this short article I’m going to answer the 6 most important questions, to help you understand the Dixie is, how it’s calculated and how to trade it…
1. WHAT IT IS?
The U.S. Dollar Index – DIXIE - (USDX) was first intrpduced in March 1973 and is a measure of the value of the U.S. dollar relative to a basket of foreign currencies.
2. HOW IT’S CALCULATED
The USDX is calculated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and is based on the exchange rates of six major currencies: the euro (EUR) – Accounts for 57.6% - ,Japanese yen (JPY), British pound (GBP), Canadian dollar (CAD), Swedish krona (SEK), and Swiss franc (CHF) .
3. ECONOMY GAUZE
The DIXIE is used as a barometer for the value of the US dollar to base it on the potential strength of weakness of the U.S Economy.
4. TRADED BASED ON
The USDX is traded on financial markets, and its value moves based on certain macro aspects such as: Changes in exchange rates, economic conditions, and global market trends.
5. USE
Investors and financial institutions uses the USDX is often to hedge against currency risk, as well as to speculate on changes in the value of the U.S. dollar.
6. HIGHER VERSUS LOWER VALUE
If the Dixie goes up this means the US Dollar is gaining strength against the other currencies. The more it goes up the more it appreciates which indicates a stronger US dollar – Stronger economy – more confidence in the US dollar.
If the Dixie drops, it means the US dollar is getting weaker against the other currencies in the basket for the index. As it drops more, it depreciated which tells us the US dollar is getting weaker which means – a weaker economy and less confidence in the US dollar.

US index under controlUS index is being controlled and it will not fall that easily. The price movements for the past 2022 looks to me like they were all happened by either greedy or panic trades. At this moment, 50bps rate hike should pump the US index up a bit in the coming weeks.
Until around Q2-Q3 of 2023, this should be the time when USDX starts falling.
This is only my opinion and not a financial advice. Trade safe!
USD Dumping Alerts " overvalued " The dollar had a nice rally and is about to collapse .. the rally was markup and we are gonna see a retest towards 106 must break down the 106 level then it's bullish .. building short positions starting from the September candle, especially above 109.900 and going full short if it touches 119.600 .. its a large zone so give it space and dont rush, its worth it ,,
oh, I forget to mention that all fundamentals are dollar bearish now it's time for the dollar to pay the bill :)

Trade Weighted US Dollar Index: Broad, Goods and Services❓How long will the dollar appreciate?
🏦 The Federal Reserve dollar indexes are designed to help estimate the overall effects of U.S. dollar exchange rate movements on U.S. international trade.
📈 There are three indexes:
(1) the broad dollar index (this index), which is constructed using the currencies of the most important U.S. trading partners by volume of bilateral trade,
and two sub-indexes, which split the currencies in
(2) the broad index into advanced foreign economies (AFE) and
(3) emerging market economies (EME).
The broad dollar index contains the currencies of 26 economies for which bilateral trade with the United States accounts for at least 0.5 percent of total U.S. bilateral trade.
It includes the Euro Area, Canada, Japan, Mexico, China, United Kingdom, Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Brazil, Switzerland, Thailand, Philippines, Australia, Indonesia, India, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Sweden, Argentina, Venezuela, Chile and Colombia.
🤔 Trade-Weighted Dollar Index vs. the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY or USDX)
Created in 1973, DXY is composed of a basket of six currencies:
Euro (EUR), Japanese yen (JPY), British pound (GBP), Canadian dollar (CAD), Swedish krona (SEK), and Swiss franc (CHF).
💶 The EUR is, by far, the largest component of the index, making up almost 58% (officially 57.6%) of the basket.
The weights of the rest of the currencies in the index are:
JPY (13.6%), GBP (11.9%), CAD (9.1%), SEK (4.2%), CHF (3.6%).
When the Fed introduced the Trade Weighted Dollar Index, it hoped to create a better alternative to the USDX, namely by using more currencies and periodically reviewing the index's composition.
