The cautious strengthening of the dollar continues, and this is not yet a signal of a widespread exit from risk assets, but a sign that the dollar is recovering from its 12% slump between March and early September. This marked the beginning of the US dollar's pullback from important round levels but is not yet a sign of a deeper reversal of sentiment in favour of the USD.
The Dollar Index is looking positive in September, with all six trading sessions showing strengthening. In EUR/USD, a counterattack signal came after a swift slippage above 1.2000 on the first of September. Since then, the pair has been slowly but surely declining, testing support at 1.1800 and correcting 23.6% of the growth momentum of the last two months.
The GBP/USD a week ago was just one step away from 1.3500, turning south with the euro, and declining slightly more active than the euro, already supplying the dollar 30% of the previous month's momentum.
