The U.S Dollar Index measures the dollar’s strength against six major currencies, mainly the Euro (EUR).
Recent price action on the DXY (U.S Dollar Index) shows that this has been a weaker year for the dollar, with some small gains the last half of the year.
Studying the price action above we can quickly note that it might be hinting at a further continuation of this downtrend on the DXY into 2026. The same observation can be made on the EUR/USD chart (Euro vs U.S Dollar) where we can see a bullish year for the Euro and a hint at a continuation of this trend.
So what does this mean for us as traders? Simply put, if we see the continuation then betting against the dollar in the coming year can put you in a favourable position. Keep in mind that confirmation is key and waiting for a confirmation on the trend (like a break of the recent lows on the DXY) should play a massive role in your decision making.
