• DXY climbs to fresh tops further north of the 96.00 hurdle.
• The next target of note comes around 96.90.

DXY posts gains for the third straight session on Monday, extending the recent surpass of the 96.00 barrier.

If the recovery gains more serious traction, then the index is expected to revisit the 96.90 region, where the November and December 2021 highs are located. The surpass of this level should expose a move to the 2022 peak around 97.40 (January 28).

In the near term, the 5-month line near 95.20 is expected to hold the downside for the time being. Looking at the broader picture, the longer-term positive stance in the dollar remains unchanged above the 200-day SMA at 93.62.
