US Dollar Index (DXY) futures are trading near 103.74 as of this writing, continuing to decline for the third consecutive trading day after hitting a new high since January 2003 at 105.06 on Friday. From a technical point of view, the price of the DXY index futures broke through an important short-term support level of 103.92 (200 EMA on the 1-hour chart), placing an order for further decline.

We also assume that the breakdown of today's local bottom of 103.63 may increase the negative dynamics. As of this writing, futures for the DXY index continued to decline, reaching a new intraday low of 103.41. A local support level also passes through this mark, from which the price rebounded three times—on May 6, 9 and 11.

If this level holds again, then we should wait for the next rebound from it and the price to return to the zone above the level of 103.92.

The breakdown of the resistance level 104.26 (200 EMA on the 15-minute chart) will be a confirmation signal for the resumption of long positions.

If the support level of 103.41 fails and is broken, then the downward correction may last up to the support levels of 102.70 (144 EMA on the 4-hour chart), and 102.00 (200 EMA on the 4-hour chart and the lower limit of the descending channel on the daily DXY chart).

Exchange Rates 17.05.2022 analysis

We consider the current decline as corrective, expecting the resumption of the upward dynamics of the dollar and its DXY index.

Support levels: 103.41, 102.70, 102.00, 101.16, 101.00

Resistance levels: 103.63, 103.92, 104.26, 104.98, 105.06
