DXY OUTLOOK BEFORE FOMC | Will the Dollar Break Trend DXY OUTLOOK BEFORE FOMC | Will the Dollar Break Trend or Just Retrace?
The US Dollar Index (DXY) has rebounded after weeks of relentless selling pressure, but this bounce is now approaching key decision zones just ahead of two critical events: the April PCE report and the next FOMC meeting. With macro data and sentiment diverging, traders should closely monitor how the dollar reacts to upcoming catalysts.
🌍 MACRO & FUNDAMENTAL CONTEXT
Core PCE Price Index (Apr) – due Friday – is the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge. A higher-than-expected print may reinforce the “higher for longer” stance on rates.
FOMC Minutes revealed a growing divide within the committee: some members remain open to further tightening if inflation stalls.
Bond market stress is emerging again, as 10Y yields hover near 4.5%. Fiscal concerns and treasury auctions are weighing on investor sentiment.
Political noise – particularly from former President Trump’s shifting tariff threats – adds short-term volatility to USD expectations.
🧠 Bottom line: While the dollar has regained ground, macro risks remain asymmetric. A hot PCE may spark short-term demand for USD, but structural credibility risks are still on the table.
📊 TECHNICAL INSIGHT – H1 STRUCTURE
Price Channel: DXY broke slightly above a well-respected descending channel that started mid-May.
EMA Confluence: EMA 13, 34, and 89 are beginning to align upward but haven’t fully confirmed a bullish trend yet.
Key Retest Zone: 99.08 is a critical zone — a Fibonacci 38.2% level of the recent breakout. A hold here may support another test higher.
🔑 KEY TECHNICAL LEVELS
Immediate Support: 99.08 (Fib 38.2% + channel retest)
Mid Resistance: 100.02 (round number + previous structure high + near 200 EMA)
Major Target Zone: 100.48 (Fib 61.8% + multi-day pivot)
📈 POTENTIAL PRICE SCENARIOS
If DXY respects 99.08, a continuation toward 100.02 and even 100.48 is plausible as a technical correction.
If DXY fails to hold 99.08, the breakout above the trend channel may turn into a false break, opening the door for a re-test of lower channel support near 98.30.
Watch for price behavior around 100.02 — aggressive sellers may re-enter at this level, especially if macro data disappoints.
⚠️ STRATEGIC REMINDER
Avoid chasing mid-range price action.
Let the market reveal its hand post-PCE.
Volatility is expected to spike — be patient and let key levels define directional conviction.
DXY 1W (Dollar Index Weekly Chart)All eyes on the Dollar’s weekly support zone — it’s looking vulnerable and may attempt a breakdown next week. 📉
If that breakdown confirms, the Dollar could head toward Support 1, and possibly Support 2 in the coming weeks.
And you know what that means...
Bullish for crypto. 🟢🔥
Stay alert — the coming weeks could get exciting!
My Thoughts #011What I see coming is sells
Here's why
Because the pair just gave a LH in the current bearish trend of the HTF
and the pair just choch and it's only sells after a retest
It could just continue selling
But I will wait to see the market's hand before taking my first trades
This pair could buy so use proper risk management

US DOLLAR INDEX Correlation Between Dollar Index (DXY), 10-Year Bond Yields, Bond Prices, and Interest Rates
1. Bond Prices vs. Yields
Inverse Relationship: Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions.
When bond prices rise, yields fall (e.g., demand for safe-haven assets drives prices up).
When bond prices fall, yields rise (e.g., selling pressure due to inflation fears).
Example: A 1% Fed rate hike can cause bond prices to drop, pushing 10-year yields up by ~1.3% .
2. 10-Year Bond Yields vs. Dollar Index (DXY)
Positive Correlation: Typically, higher yields attract foreign capital into USD assets, strengthening the dollar.
A 1% rise in 10-year yields historically correlates with a 1–2% DXY appreciation .
Risk-Off Scenarios: Investors may flock to both Treasuries (pushing yields down) and USD (DXY↑), weakening the usual correlation .
Policy Divergence: If the Fed delays rate cuts amid global easing, yields and DXY may diverge temporarily .
3. Interest Rates vs. Dollar Index (DXY)
Direct Relationship: Higher US interest rates strengthen the dollar by attracting yield-seeking capital.
A 25-basis-point Fed rate hike can boost DXY by 1–2% .
Example: In 2018, Fed rate hikes to 2.5% drove DXY gains of ~8% .
Inverse Impact on Bonds: Rate hikes depress bond prices (yields rise), reinforcing the DXY-yield link .
4. Interest Rates vs. Bond Yields
Policy-Driven: Fed rate changes directly influence short-term yields, while long-term yields (e.g., 10-year) reflect growth/inflation expectations.
The 10-year yield often leads Fed policy shifts. For example, yields fell 150 basis points ahead of 2019 rate cuts .
The 2-year Treasury yield is particularly sensitive to Fed expectations, serving as a "policy barometer" .
Summary Table of Relationships
Factor Relationship with DXY Relationship with 10-Year Yields
Bond Prices ↑ DXY ↓ (safe-haven flows weaken USD) Yields ↓ (inverse bond price-yield link)
10-Year Yields ↑ DXY ↑ (capital inflows) —
Interest Rates ↑ DXY ↑ (yield appeal) Yields ↑ (policy tightening)
Risk-Off Sentiment DXY ↑ (safe-haven demand) Yields ↓ (bond buying)
Key Exceptions and Contexts
Term Premium Dynamics:
Recent 10-year yield spikes (e.g., to 4.54%) are driven by market psychology (90% due to deficits/inflation fears vs. 10% fundamentals) .
Economic Growth Differentials:
Stronger US GDP growth (vs. peers) supports both yields and DXY, while weak growth decouples them .
Geopolitical Risks:
Trade tensions (e.g., US-China tariffs) can strengthen DXY as a safe haven, even if yields dip .
Conclusion
The Dollar Index (DXY) and 10-year bond yields generally share a positive correlation, reinforced by interest rate policies and capital flows. However, this relationship can weaken during risk-off environments or when fiscal/monetary policies diverge. Bond prices and yields remain inversely tied, while Fed rate decisions directly impact both yields and the dollar. Traders should monitor growth data, inflation trends, and central bank signals to navigate these interconnected dynamics.
#DOLLAR #USD #GOLD #SILVER #COPPER
Beware, the US dollar is at a technical crossroads 1) The US Dollar remains the weakest major Forex currency in 2025
The US dollar has had a difficult year on the foreign exchange market (Forex), recording a decline of over 9% against the world's major currencies, despite the Federal Reserve's continuing rigid monetary policy. Technically speaking, the DXY index has reached several theoretical bearish targets, notably according to Elliot analysis, but has not yet touched the key objective of the A=C movement. This dynamic is also evident in the strong chartist compression in weekly data, placing the USD at a potential breakout point. The EUR/USD and USD/JPY pairs are also in long-term hinge configurations, and institutional positions remain broadly bearish on the US dollar against a basket of major currencies.
Two interesting charts on the current situation are presented below: the first shows Japanese candlesticks in monthly data, and the second is a theoretical reminder of how Elliott waves work.
As long as the US dollar against a basket of major currencies (DXY) remains below the indicated pivot line, the trend remains bearish, with a target of 95/96 points. Conversely, a rebound above the hinged pivot line would put an end to the US dollar's annual correction, with the starting point for a technical recovery.
2) A weakening dollar despite an inflexible Fed: how to explain this paradox?
The apparent paradox of a falling US dollar while US interest rates remain high and the Fed does not expect to cut rates before September/October, goes beyond simple rate differentials. At a time when the ECB has already embarked on a policy of monetary easing, the rate differential with the Fed should normally support the USD. However, other factors are taking over: the markets' growing mistrust of US assets, fuelled by trade tensions and uncertainty over Trump's fiscal policy, is weakening demand for dollars. Added to this is a major liquidity factor: the recent increase in the money supply (M2) in the United States and the decline in reverse repo operations, which reflect an implicit easing of financial conditions. This easing is encouraging persistent downward pressure on the greenback, despite a Fed that remains intransigent on rates.
The next release of US PCE inflation, scheduled for Friday May 30, could play an important catalytic role: a higher-than-expected figure would strengthen the case for an even firmer Fed, which could offer the USD a temporary technical rebound. Conversely, confirmation of disinflation would fuel bets on future easing and accentuate selling pressure. In short, the US dollar is not only at a technical crossroads, but also a fundamental one, suspended between forthcoming monetary action and deeper signals from the global liquidity market.

USD vying for Monthly Doji after April Support BounceMonthly charts are often underapprecaited by many retail traders. Sure, they're not very actionable as there's only 12 per year but they can do a great job of highlighting trends and broader market themes and, of interest for this scenario, possible turns.
As a case in point, back in January the US Dollar had a full head of steam, and there was nary a bear in sight. But that month showed as a doji in the USD and in February, the tariff theme started to take over. It was a mild pullback that month but collectively, after two months of bulls stalling, many were ready to pull the plug and that's what showed in March and continued through April as the January doji led into a stern sell-off and fresh multi-year lows.
In April, the USD was hit hard by a combination of tariff drama and trend continuation and a major spot of support eventually came into play around Easter Monday, taken from a trendline projection as well as the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the 2008-2022 major move.
The bounce wasn't automatic, as there was a slow grind of higher-highs and higher-lows that got another boost around the FOMC rate decision earlier in May. That rally ran all the way until a major spot of resistance came into play at 102, at which sellers reacted.
But at this point they've been stalled at another major spot on the chart of 98.98, which is helping to set a higher-low. And from the monthly chart, the USD is currently showing a doji on the monthly bar for May, which sets the table for a possible turn as we trade into the summer months.
Key for this coming to fruition will be continued recovery in USD/JPY, which has had a major impact in the USD of late. And if we do see that theme of USD-strength continue, I still favor EUR/USD as a major pair of interest for that theme. - js
SELL DXYThis week the USD has been retracing, most traders are going long but we know how this goes. Based of our strategy and approach we are still very much bearish on the USD. Our positions for shorts are at 99.916 and adding more shorts at 100.500. Our targets remain at 94.760. If you are catching this set up now then your stops should be above 1011.300. Use proper risk management and risk what you can afford to loose. Best of luck folks.
