$DXY

$DXY  closed lower on Monday as it extends this month's trading range. The low-range close sets the stage for a steady to lower opening on Tuesday. 

Stochastics and the RSI are neutral to bullish hinting that a low might be in or is near. Closes above the 20-day moving average crossing at 82.78 are needed to confirm that a short-term low has been posted. If September renews the decline off July's high, the 50% retracement level of the April-July rally crossing at 81.64 is the next downside target. 

First resistance is the 20-day moving average crossing at 82.78. 
Second resistance is the reaction high crossing at 83.61. 

First support is this month's low crossing at 82.06. 
Second support is the 50% retracement level of the April-July rally crossing at 81.64.
