DXY looks to be at a reversal point, or is it? This is why I love looking at a ticker in relation to another by using the / symbol. The way it works is (ticker youre interested in)/(in relation to another ticker). For this instance we will look at both DXY/SPY and SPY/DXY. Typically SPY and DXY do not move in correlation, in fact they move in the opposite directions. When the dollar is strong, stocks fall as more people invest in the dollar as opposed to stocks. In the contrary when more people are investing in stocks, there is less money being put into the dollar.
First lets look at only the DXY chart.
Here we are looking at the weekly chart of the dollar. Although we are still in a downtrend, with the 9,21 and 50 ema stacking to the downside, there seems to be the possibility of a double bottom occurring at a previous support level of 101. By looking just at this chart, the dollar looks primed for a reversal. The question is how strong of a reversal will it be?
Next lets look at the DXY/SPY chart.
This chart is a much different story and shows tremendous weakness in the dollar in comparison to stocks. We have a head and shoulders with the last reject off of the 200ma. The candles are following the downwards momentum along the ema with the continuing lows of the MACD and RSI.
Last, lets look at SPY/DXY
As SPY and the dollar are inversely correlated its no wonder that this chart is showing significant strength in SPY. We have an inverse head and shoulders with the 9,21, and 50 ema going upwards also followed with the upwards trajectory of MACD and RSI. If there is a break of the resistance line, I am even more than certain we are on our way to another bull run. I know the thought of a bull run sounds insane with so much talk about a recession but do you think the market wont be prepared for a massive short squeeze as everyone and their mothers have gone short in anticipation of a killer recession? Remember, the market never does what the masses want it to do.
TLDR: DXY looks poised for a reversal but comparing DXY to SPY by looking at DXY/SPY and SPY/DXY shows significant weakness in the dollar in comparison to stocks. DXY and SPY are inversely correlated. All charts combined shows we may have a slight bounce in the dollar, but there is more downside still to come.
