US Dollar Index Price Forecast: Maintains position above 100.00, nine-day EMA

Source Fxstreet
  • US Dollar Index may rebound toward the 10-month high of 100.64.
  • The 14-day Relative Strength Index is near 58, suggesting continued upward momentum.
  • The primary support appears at the nine-day EMA of 99.95.

The US Dollar Index (DXY), which measures the value of the US Dollar (USD) against six major currencies, is inching lower after two days of gains and trading around 100.10 during the Asian hours on Monday. The technical analysis of the daily chart shows that the dollar index is consolidating within the ascending channel pattern, suggesting a persistent bullish bias.

The near-term bias is mildly bullish as the US Dollar Index holds above both the nine-day and 50-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), which continue to trend higher and confirm an established uptrend. The recent pullback from last week’s peak has been shallow, with the short-term average still tracking above the medium-term line, signaling ongoing buying interest on dips rather than a full loss of momentum.

The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) around 58 stays in positive territory without reaching overbought conditions, indicating steady bullish pressure but not yet a stretched market.

The US Dollar Index may target the 10-month high of 100.64, which was recorded on March 31. Further advances would lead the DXY to explore the area around the upper boundary of the ascending channel around 102.40.

On the downside, the primary support lies at the nine-day EMA of 99.95, followed by the lower ascending channel boundary around 99.70. A break below the channel would put downward pressure on the US Dollar Index to test the 50-day EMA at 99.02.

Bitcoin briefly loses 2025 gains as crypto plunges over the weekend.Bitcoin experienced a sharp decline this weekend, briefly erasing its 2025 gains and dipping below its year-opening value of $93,507. The cryptocurrency fell to a low of $93,029 on Sunday, representing a 25% drop from its all-time high in October. Although it has rebounded slightly to around $94,209, the pressures on the market remain significant. The downturn occurred despite the reopening of the U.S. government on Thursday, which many had hoped would provide essential support for crypto markets. This year initially appeared promising for cryptocurrencies, particularly after the inauguration of President Donald Trump, who has established the most pro-crypto administration thus far. However, ongoing political tensions—including Trump's tariff strategies and the recent government shutdown, lasting a historic 43 days—have contributed to several rapid price pullbacks for Bitcoin throughout the year. Market dynamics are also being influenced by Bitcoin whales—investors holding large amounts of Bitcoin—who have been offloading portions of their assets, consequently stalling price rallies even as positive regulatory developments emerge. Despite these sell-offs, analysts from Glassnode argue that this behavior aligns with typical patterns seen among long-term investors during the concluding stages of bull markets, suggesting it is not indicative of a mass exodus. Notably, Bitcoin is not alone in its struggles, as Ethereum and Solana have also recorded declines of 7.95% and 28.3%, respectively, since the start of the year, while numerous altcoins have faced even steeper losses. Looking ahead, questions linger regarding the viability of the four-year cycle thesis, particularly given the increasing institutional support and regulatory frameworks now in place in the crypto landscape. Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, remains optimistic, suggesting a potential Bitcoin resurgence in 2026 driven by the “debasement trade” thesis and a broader trend toward increased adoption of stablecoins, tokenization, and decentralized finance. Hougan emphasized the soundness of the underlying fundamentals, pointing to a positive outlook for the sector in the longer term.
