The US dollar index is recovering from the recent drop and will likely retrace back to the 140.00 resistance level before dropping further. The price will probably continue the bearish trend from the 140.00 resistance level.
The technical indicators indicate that the price will likely drop from the 140.00 resistance level as it is also around the 0.5 Fibonacci level. There is also a bearish order block and imbalance that will likely push the price down.
Moreover, the bearish head and shoulder pattern around the same price level is another confirmation of the potential continuation of the downward trend. I am expecting the price to drop to the 100.634 support level in the coming days and weeks.
US dollar index fundamental analysisFundamentally, the jobless data will be published today, if the data turns out negative the US dollar index will drop and if the data turns out positive the US dollar index will go up.
In the longer term, the feds are likely to reduce the interest rates in 2024 which will push the price of DXY down and the price of the US dollar index can drop substantially.
