The Rise of the Dollar Ends with a CrisisHistorical rallies regarding the US dollar show an unpreceded rise for high-risk assets, including stocks, which in the past had led to some sort of financial/economic crisis. For sure, always is very difficult to make an accurate forecast in price and in time, but we must not forget the explosion of the tech bubble in the 2000s, the ‘’Great Recession’’ in 2008, as well as the sovereign debt in 2012 since the one factor that has a high correlation to those declines, was the strengthening of U.S Dollar at least by 19% each time. Just to remind you that the benchmark S&P500 has already fallen by 23% this year.
An estimation from Morgan Stanley is that the profit margin of US companies will be dropped 0.5% for every 1% of the rising Dollar. And if we consider that during the fourth quarter due to the rise of the Dollar earnings will fall by about 10%, we can imagine the disaster that will follow in stocks, excluding other issues of energy costs. Moreover, the occurrence of major central banks’ policy tightening now in an aggressive manner is amazing. Therefore, this new bubble has to break out suddenly.
The possibilities are raising for more rate hikes, according to the recent stubbornly high inflation, which in turn will strengthen the Dollar even more. And this is good for the US because strengthening the dollar means cheaper imports and a record purchasing power for Americans. But for non-American citizens is bad and especially for the other Central Banks that have deposits in US dollars. It will be more expensive to repay their loans – companies and emerging market governments – since, from the debt data perspective, $83 billion dollars are going to be matured by the next year covering 32 countries. According to the World Bank, there are warnings of heading a global recession and many developing economies will face huge damages respecting the cutting in spending on education and health care to cover their debt payments.
What’s even more concerning for now is that volatility and VIX is still relatively low despite lower stocks. So is extreme fear yet to come? Check our VIX chart in one of our past ideas.

$DXY - It has been my best friend for while...$DXY - It has been my best friend for while...
We have a saying in trading: The trend is your friend until it breaks!
We reaching key areas, my longer term target if we break above 110 areas next 120 IF we get there. I do really like to keep an open mind to either direction. However, we had a large pull back this morning which makes sense to have. Keep an eye on the key areas we at break above or below shorter term and longer term the big question is - Is this a pattern brewing of a rising wedge to have a pull back medium term?
Things to keep in mind are the key fundamental data we had FOMC yesterday dovish and 75 hike it was expected the slimmer chance weeks went by of 100 and that did sound like a joke imo. However, we pulling back FX Majors check HT as it really key and we entering near end of month as well.
Remember: Follow your own trade plan, it will make you very successful.

USD Index Hits ResistanceUSD Index is coming impulsively higher in the 4-hour chart after a three-wave A-B-C correction in wave IV back in August, so the current recovery is a new five-wave rise. But it's a fifth wave that can be now in late stages here at 110 - 111 area. Divergence and potential wedge formation also suggest that the upside can be limited. Drop below 108.00 will suggest that the top is in place, at least a attemporary one. Also, the current DXY has a lot to do with EURUSD of course, which for now stayed about the recent low as European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde noted that they are ready for further hikes on upcoming meetings, taking the deposit rate into neutral territory.
/DX dollar index possible predictionAfter FED decision about interest rate in september 2022., dollar index could go to 102.
Dollar index will weak a little.
Dollar index of 102 will be if FED do not raise interest rate or reduce the interest rate (low possibility).
If the FED increases the interest rate by, for example, 0.75% and then interest is 3.25%, then dollar index will rise more to 120 (EURUSD 0.85) in next period - a very small possibility in September 2022.
