US Dollar Index Divergence with EUR/USD

A week ago, I noted that /DX had made a lower low while many of the major currencies in the basket which comprise the USD index did not make similar higher highs. Today, the divergence continues, and until it is canceled, it looks like /DX could have a serious rally in store.


The above 1h charts are /DX on the left, and EUR/USD on the right. Notice again that EUR/USD has yet to breach the previous high, whereas /DX has clearly breached it twice now. This is bearish divergence for the EUR/USD, and looks bullish for /DX, as long as EUR/USD does not rally to new highs.
