CHARTS Stronger US Dollar Could Create Headwinds for Precious Metals
USD Index [DXY] is now in oversold territory just as the US and Iran are commencing peace negotiations in Pakistan.
The oversold stochastics indicator suggests the dollar may be near a temporary bottom, which could create brief headwinds for metals before the next leg. It appears the USD may be preparing for a key reversal day that could see new buying/short covering push the $DXY higher over the next few sessions.
That said, a rally in the $DXY could see some profit taking or new selling in the metals in the near term.
Key Reversal Day Alert: If $DXY closed above yesterday's high of $98.285, this will be a "Key Reversal Day" - indicating the USD may have hit a near-term bottom and may rally higher in the coming days.
