“Death Cross” Occurs in DXY| KOL Forex Analysis•Jasper Lo from buzai232's blog

Last week, an analysis was reported by some renowned news media, pointing out the “death cross” in the daily chart of the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY). Such cross occurs when the 50-day moving average crosses below the 200-day moving average. It also predicted that DXY is possible to slump.To get more news about Expert 24 Trade, you can visit wikifx news official website.
　　Such bearish technical formation which reflects future market trend, from my point of view, is not worthy of worry. The reason lies in the results of the same situation last time. On December 30, 2019, the “death cross” occurred. In an ironic twist, however, DXY rebound dramatically to 99.91 after it reached its bottom at 96.35.February 21 witnessed a golden cross when the 50-day moving average rose above the 200-day moving average. Ironically, DXY plunged to 95.00 after it peaked at 99.91.
　　Such golden cross and death cross occurred are both wildly inaccurate. The theory as a joke may be accurate once the viewpoints are exchanged.


In the session of technical analysis, I‘ve shared my opinions on the crossovers and held that the 50/200 crossover is not the best-performing moving average (keep you guessing). Thus, I won’t adopt the death cross to estimate how DXY performs in the future market.
　　DXY came under downside pressure in the short run because of the bullish trend in U.S. stock markets rather than the rationales proposed by Roach, nor the death cross occurred. In addition, such divergence between DXY and U.S. stock markets will be dominant over the short term, with its references among the three U.S. stock indices lie on the DJIA and the S&P 500 rather than the Nasdaq composite index. Thus, it is necessary to analyze the continuing effect of the two indices on DXY in the short term. But in the long run, the main factors affecting DXY will remain to be traditional basic ones such as politics, economics and monetary policies.
