DXY | Safe-Haven Demand Supports Dollar, Key Resistance at 99.40
During periods of geopolitical escalation and war tensions, the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) often strengthens as investors shift toward safe-haven assets.
In times of uncertainty, global capital typically moves away from riskier assets such as equities and emerging-market currencies and into the U.S. dollar and U.S. Treasuries, which are considered more stable.
With geopolitical tensions in the Middle East remaining elevated, safe-haven demand could continue to support the dollar. However, the reaction may vary depending on oil prices, inflation expectations, and the Federal Reserve’s policy outlook.
Rising oil prices could increase inflation risks, which may complicate the Federal Reserve’s policy path and influence the dollar’s direction.
Technical Outlook
Technically, the DXY has reached the resistance zone around 99.40, where the market may begin to show signs of bearish momentum, particularly if oil prices remain elevated and inflation concerns increase.
As long as price trades below 99.40, the index may decline toward 98.75, and a confirmed 4H candle close below 98.75 could extend the downside move toward 97.97 – 96.62.
However, stability in oil prices or supportive comments from the Federal Reserve regarding inflation could shift sentiment back in favor of the dollar, opening the path toward 100.27 and 101.81.
Key Levels
Pivot: 99.40
Resistance: 100.27 · 101.81 · 102.99
Support: 98.75 · 97.97 · 96.62
