USDX is looking to consolidate above the 98.00 handle, but it seems that the bearish force is still adding pressure on the index around that area. However, to confirm further advances in the US Dollar Index, one should expect a breakout above the key zone of 98.53 in order to reach the psychological level of 99.00. MACD indicator remains in the negative territory, supporting a possible bearish correction idea.
H1 chart's resistance levels: 98.01 / 98.53
