Next on the upside comes the 102.60 area

• DXY maintains the bullish development above 101.00.
• Next up-barrier of note emerge around the 102.60 zone.

DXY advances for the fifth consecutive session so far and looks to consolidate the recent breakout of the key 101.00 hurdle.

A more serious bullish attempt in the index should clear the 102.60 zone, where the provisional 55-day and 100-day SMAs coincide. North from here aligns the July high in the mid-103.00s seconded by the key 200-day SMA at 104.00.

Looking at the broader picture, while below the 200-day SMA, the outlook for the index is expected to remain negative.
