Is US$ losing the battle?

Is the US$ losing the battle? The DXY has slipped back below the contested 10-yr support trend line and the failure to hold to see out the month is obviously bearish. This US$ weakness has helped to underpin the open trend line breakout trades. News has just filtered through that the vote on the US stimulus bill has been pushed out to Thursday, US time, so caution will be needed around this information release.

 

Data: there is a lot of second tier data today as well as US ISM Manufacturing data.
