Dollar Index Extends Gains Amid Stable ECB Policy

The US Dollar Index (DXY) has maintained its positive momentum after bouncing off the 100.50-100.60 support area and reclaiming the 101.20 level. The current price of 101.33 is above both the 50-day exponential moving average (EMA) at 101.06 and the 100-day EMA at 100.97, indicating that buyers have taken control of the market. The DXY's rising trend line continues to act as support, and with an RSI reading of 60, there is still room for further upside without immediate signs of overbought conditions.

The first resistance level for the DXY lies at 101.65, followed by 102.06 and then 102.42. On the downside, new support has formed around the 101.20 price, with the 100.50 and 99.92 areas attracting buyers. As long as the DXY remains above 101.20, the uptrend is expected to continue, potentially leading to another leg higher towards 101.65-102.06.

However, if the DXY were to drop below 100.50, it could open the door for further losses towards 99.92, which would likely signal a shift in market sentiment and undermine the bullish perspective.
