US Dollar Index Tracks Higher and Higher - forex trading alert expert robot

US Dollar Index Tracks Higher and Higher ~ forex trading alert expert robot


Where will it stop?


The US Dollar Index has been on a tear for many weeks and shows no sign of easing off the pace.  Some blame the Quantitative Easing and some blame the international central banks for this movement, no one really knows what to attribute it to.

The US Dollar Index reflects the interchange between the US Dollar and other currencies, a basket made up of Euro, Japanese Yen, Pound Sterling, Canadian Dollar, Swedish Krona, Swiss Franc.

The index is traded as a futures contract.

I have here a Point & Figure chart which shows that the future price target of $106.00, quite a distance to travel from todays level of $88.36.

Today it is at a level of resistance as you can see on the chart.




Recent developments in Japan and Europe have devalued their currencies and pushed the US Dollar higher.

Today China reduced their interest rates to boost a sluggish economy adding more to the upward move of the US Dollar.

The US Dollar Index will certainly be something to watch regarding any dollar related trading strategy.

I have some commentary below which you may find relevant  and interesting.
