DOLLAR INDEX TO CONTINUE FALLING 8/17/2025As I have been analyzing the trajectory of the dollar index over the last 3 months, I still expect the dollar index to continue falling after a few days of sideways consolidation this coming week. During the consolidation, I will be looking for a retrace up to about the 97.600 level and any open and close candle above the 97.600 level will invalidate this thesis. Target for this week after we gather steam to break the support level (97.200) is at 96.881 - 97.746.
I thank everyone for taking time to visit my video publications and wish the best of trades for you this week. Cheers!!

US Dollar: Is The Bearish Correction Ending?Welcome back to the Weekly Forex Forecast for the week of Aug 18 - 22nd.
In this video, we will analyze the following FX market: USD Dollar
The USD has been weak since the start of August. But this is after a Bullish July! Is the retracement going to find support and all buyers to take over? Price is currently at the levels that could see buyers step in, just above a protected fractal low. If the low holds, we will see prices move higher. If the low fails, we resume the down trend that we've been in since January.
React and do not predict.
Enjoy!
May profits be upon you.

$US and The Elliott Wave(Real Time Updates)This is an update of a previous publication(link below). In that publication, where Wave 1(Green) ended, there was speculation whether the correction that followed was a Zigzag or the first wave of a Flat, as you can see on the chart below. This Wave turned out to be the first wave of a Flat and this is just an update. We should expect a continuation to the upside for our Wave 3(Green), then a Zigzag for Wave 4(Green). Note that the green arrow does not represent where price will reach then retrace but is an indication of market direction. For more information on the same, go to:

DXY: Strong Bearish Sentiment! Short!
My dear friends,
Today we will analyse DXY together☺️
The in-trend continuation seems likely as the current long-term trend appears to be strong, and price is holding below a key level of 98.147 So a bearish continuation seems plausible, targeting the next low. We should enter on confirmation, and place a stop-loss beyond the recent swing level.
❤️Sending you lots of Love and Hugs❤️

US Dollar (DXY), the importance of Jackson Hole this weekThe Jackson Hole Economic Symposium organized by the Kansas City Federal Reserve is the dominant fundamental factor this week. This event takes place every August and is considered the major monetary event before the end of the summer vacations. It brings together the heads of the major central banks and has one highlight: the press conference given by the Chairman of the FED. This year's press conference will take place on Friday August 22.
1) Jerome Powell's press conference this Friday at the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium will be decisive for the US dollar's end-of-summer trend on Forex
Jerome Powell's press conference on Friday August 22 is eagerly awaited, as he is expected to outline the FED's planned monetary policy path between now and the end of the year. Let's not forget that the federal funds rate has not fallen since December 2024, and that the US labor market is beginning to show signs of weakness. But the PCE inflation rate is moving closer to the 3% threshold than to 2%, and Jerome Powell has so far been intransigent on the inflation target.
No FED pivot? Technical pivot? Real FED pivot? The FED will have to make one of these three choices, and Powell could provide further details at this Friday's press conference.
2) Jerome Powell's press conference will have a very strong impact on the FED's monetary policy expectations, notably on the probability of a rate cut at the time of the monetary policy decision on Wednesday September 17
This press conference will have a direct impact on the FED's monetary choice expectations at the time of the monetary policy decision on Wednesday September 17. According to the CME FED Watch tool, the probability of a cut in the US federal funds rate currently exceeds 80%. But this may be too optimistic an expectation, given the resilience of inflation in the US.
Last year in Jackson Hole, Powell spelled out what the FED was planning to do for the end of the year, so this August 2025, the market is once again hoping for clarification on what the FED will do on Wednesday September 17.
3) The US Dollar (DXY) has stabilized on the Foreign Exchange (FX) market, but at this stage has not validated a medium-term bullish reversal pattern. The DXY remains bearish as long as it holds below 100/101 resistance
No FED pivot? FED technical pivot? Real FED pivot? The FED's monetary choices will have a decisive impact on the year-end trend of the US dollar (DXY) on the forex market. At present, the latter has stabilized on major technical support, but has not validated a bullish reversal technical configuration.

DXY - Silent, Structure in Compression, Destiny in Expansion. ⊣
⟁ DXY / U.S. Dollar Currency Index - TVC - (CHART: 1D) - (Aug 19, 2025).
◇ Analysis Price: 98.035.
⊣
⨀ I. Temporal Axis - Strategic Interval - (1D):
✴️ Note: The DXY (TVC) does not provide native volume data; therefore, flow-based indicators (OBV, MFI) are substituted by ADX (14) to quantify trend strength.
▦ EMA9 - $98.139:
∴ The current price ($98.035) is positioned below the EMA9 - ($98.139), affirming short-term pressure from sellers;
∴ The slope of the EMA9 is flat to slightly downward, indicating the loss of bullish traction in the most immediate timeframe;
∴ The EMA9 is located beneath both the EMA21 and the EMA50, confirming the presence of a “bearish stacking” alignment.
✴️ Conclusion: The micro-trend remains subdued under short-term resistance. The immediate ceiling is defined at ~98.14, and failure to close above reinforces continuous seller control.
⊢
▦ EMA21 - $98.221:
∴ The price remains below the EMA21, which represents tactical control by sellers in the intermediate horizon;
∴ The fact that EMA9 < EMA21 demonstrates that rebound attempts will likely fail beneath 98.22;
∴ The EMA21 is in direct confluence with the Bollinger Band midline, magnifying the importance of 98.22 as a structural pivot.
✴️ Conclusion: The 98.22 zone is the primary tactical battleground; daily closure above would reduce immediate bearish pressure and open short-term relief potential.
⊢
▦ EMA50 - $98.477:
∴ The price resides below EMA50, and EMA21 is positioned below EMA50, both confirming the persistence of a downward-leaning intermediate trend;
∴ The EMA50 itself is sloping gently downward, acting as a supply zone between $98.45 / $98.50;
∴ Rejections have occurred repeatedly below the $98.5 region, validating this level as the medium-term structural ceiling.
✴️ Conclusion: The $98.45 / $98.50 range is the second barrier; only a sustained close above this threshold neutralizes the existing bearish framework.
⊢
▦ BB (21, 2) - $96.815 / $98.221 / $99.628:
∴ Current price oscillates around the midline ($98.22) but is positioned slightly below, keeping price action inside the lower quadrant of the bands;
∴ Bandwidth is approximately 2.81 points (~2.9% of the midline), which signals suppressed volatility and relative compression;
∴ The upper band at $99.63 and the lower band at $96.82 establish the immediate operational box.
✴️ Conclusion: A compression regime dominates; the probability of false breakouts increases as long as ADX remains below threshold levels.
⊢
▦ RSI (21, 9) - RSI 47.75 / Signal 48.17:
∴ The RSI remains below the neutral 50 line, maintaining a neutral-to-bearish bias;
∴ RSI is positioned beneath its signal line, reinforcing waning momentum;
∴ No oversold or overbought extremes are present, leaving ample room for mean-reversion moves in either direction;
∴ The RSI lost its bullish inclination after the early-August peak, revealing that bullish momentum has dissipated.
✴️ Conclusion: Relative strength is fragile and biased downward; pressure persists, though without signs of exhaustion.
⊢
▦ MACD (9, 21, 9) - MACD Line: −0.085 | Signal: −0.082 | Spread ≈ −0.003:
∴ Both MACD line and Signal line remain below zero, sustaining the negative macro momentum regime;
∴ The spread between MACD and Signal line is marginally negative (−0.003), illustrating momentum compression and indecision;
∴ The histogram bars are shallow, suggesting the likelihood of sideways “chop” until a decisive expansion occurs;
∴ No evidence yet of either bullish or bearish acceleration; instead, momentum is locked in equilibrium.
✴️ Conclusion: Residual bearish momentum persists, but without traction. A valid directional impulse requires expansion of the spread.
⊢
▦ ADX (14) - 13.22:
∴ ADX at 13.22 is significantly below the 20 threshold, confirming a non-trending market;
∴ Under low volatility and low ADX conditions, breakouts tend to fail or reverse, producing whipsaw environments;
∴ Without ADX expansion, directional signals from EMAs, RSI, or MACD lack confirmation.
✴️ Conclusion: The trend is weak; consolidation dominates. Breakouts require ADX above 20 for validation.
⊢
🜎 Strategic Insight - Technical Oracle:
∴ The structural configuration of the moving averages (Price < EMA9 < EMA21 < EMA50) defines a layered bearish stacking, emphasizing that control remains under sellers until the price successfully reclaims successive thresholds;
∴ The triple resistance crown ($98.14 / $98.22 / $98.50) represents the immediate fortress overhead. Until pierced, rallies remain corrective rather than structural;
∴ The Bollinger Band compression in combination with ADX = 13.22 reflects a regime of latent instability: volatility is contracted, energy is being stored, and the market is poised for a sharp directional move once equilibrium breaks;
∴ Mapping of levels:
Support zones: $97.94 (recent intraday floor) -> $96.82 (lower Bollinger band);
Resistance zones: $98.22 (BB midline + EMA21 pivot) -> $98.45 / $98.50 (EMA50 zone) -> $99.63 (BB upper).
∴ Trigger mechanics (Daily):
Bullish relief scenario: A daily close above $98.22 exposes a test of $98.45 / $98.50. A confirmed structural shift requires closure above $98.50 with simultaneous ADX rising above 20, projecting extension toward $98.80 -> $99.63;
Bearish continuation scenario: A breakdown below $97.94 expands the downside toward $96.82. Acceleration requires concurrent Bollinger Band expansion + ADX increase, validating momentum.
∴ Cross-asset implication (BTC/USD): A DXY trapped beneath $98.50 with ADX under 18 provides tactical relief for risk assets - (Bitcoin, equities). Conversely, a reclaim above $98.50 coupled with rising ADX would exert renewed pressure on Bitcoin and global risk sentiment.
✴️ Conclusion:
∴ The DXY is operating in a compression regime with light bearish bias, encased beneath the triple-layered resistance of $98.22 and $98.50;
∴ Until the index secures a daily close above $98.50 supported by a strengthening ADX, the prevailing outlook remains range-to-down, targeting $97.94 and potentially $96.82;
∴ Should the crown of resistance be pierced with confirmed directional strength, the Dollar Index would advance toward $98.80 / $99.63, transitioning the macro background toward “risk-off” and imposing significant headwinds on Bitcoin and correlated assets.
⊢
𓂀 Stoic-Structural Interpretation - DXY (1D, Aug 19, 2025):
∴ The Dollar Index remains imprisoned beneath its triple crown of resistance ($98.14 -> $98.22 -> $98.50). Each layer functions not as mere numbers, but as thresholds of control - the fortress where sellers guard the path forward;
∴ Momentum structures (RSI at $47.75, MACD compressed below zero, ADX at $13.22) whisper of weak conviction, a battlefield where neither camp advances decisively. Volatility compresses, energy coils. The silence of the bands is not peace; it is the breath before release.
∴ Supports lie at $97.94 and $96.82 - the fragile floor where weakness exposes the Index to further descent. Resistances culminate in the $99.63 upper band - the bastion to be conquered should strength return.
✴️ Philosophical Seal: Like the Stoic who tests virtue in adversity, the DXY now tests resolve in compression. Its stillness is deceptive - for beneath equilibrium, forces accumulate. The wise trader, like the Stoic, does not chase the noise of indecision; he prepares, unmoved, for the inevitable expansion.
⊢
✦ Structure - DXY (1D, Aug 19, 2025):
∴ Bearish Stacking Alignment: Price $98.035 resides below EMA9 $98.139, which is below EMA21 $98.221, both beneath EMA50 $98.477. The moving averages align in descending order, sealing short-, mid-, and intermediate-term control under sellers;
∴ Compression Regime: Bollinger Bands narrowed to $96.815 / $99.628, with midline at $98.221. Volatility is contracted, reflecting equilibrium. The silence before expansion governs this phase;
∴ Momentum Exhaustion: RSI at 47.75 and MACD line at −0.085 with signal −0.082 indicate weakening drive, locked in indecision. ADX 13.22 confirms absence of a dominant directional force.
∴ Critical Thresholds:
• Support: $97.94 -> $96.82;
• Resistance: $98.22 -> $98.45–$98.50 -> $99.63;
These levels form the sacred geometry of the Dollar’s battlefield.
✴️ Structural Seal: The DXY is architected in a descending yet compressed formation - a fortress of resistance above, fragile floors below. Until ADX rises and one side seizes momentum, the Index drifts in suspended balance, storing potential for decisive rupture.

US Dollar Index (DXY) Analysis:The index is trading in a bearish trend, retreating since today’s market open and currently testing the 98.00 support level, which flipped from resistance yesterday.
🔻 Bearish Scenario:
If the index breaks below 98.00 and holds, the next targets could be 97.75 followed by 97.60.
🔺 Bullish Scenario:
On the other hand, if strong buying momentum pushes the price above 98.20, a move toward 98.33 could follow, with a possible retest of 98.50.
DXY Comprehensive AnalysisThe US Dollar Index (DXY) is currently trading around 98.14, struggling near the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement at 98.33, where strong resistance has capped further upside.
The RSI shows hidden bearish divergence, signaling potential weakness despite the recent bounce.
Price action remains within a broader downtrend channel, and repeated failures to sustain above 98.30 indicate fading bullish momentum.
Immediate support is seen near 98.00, any bearish break out will lead the prices towards 97.79 (Fib 0.786), followed by 97.50, which could attract sellers if broken.
On the upside, only a decisive break above 98.33–98.70 would shift intraday sentiment bullish toward 99.08.
For today, the bias leans bearish as long as DXY trades below 98.30, with intraday traders likely eyeing short setups on rejection patterns targeting the lower supports.
