Chart of the Day

๐Ÿ† Todayโ€™s Chart of the Day was shared by Linda Raschke (@LindaRaschke).

  • The US Dollar Index was a crucial chart in 2022, but little has been said about it since its peak in September 2022.
  • Itโ€™s been a trendless mess over the past year, but it could be gearing up for a meaningful move or trend.
  • Linda points out that Dollar Index futures have reached an equilibrium point after coiling into a 5-point triangle. In another comment, Linda explained, โ€œSome of the better trends can emerge from equilibrium points.โ€

The takeaway: The Dollar Index is coiled up for a meaningful move or trend, and its at a decision point ahead of this weekโ€™s data dump.
