USDX is performing some pullbacks and extending the correction below the 96.57 level. The daily chart is still showing an alive bullish bias, but the Index seems to be prepared to extend the corrections towards new monthly lows, as the USDX reached extreme zones. 200 SMA is still bullish and MACD indicator is on the negative territory.
