So with all the China hoopla around their recent announcement to devalue the Yuan, I was actually stalking a trade in the US Dollar Index (DXY). An Extremehurst compression signal just broke out right on time.
In the first chart below, you can see a monthly scale top extension has kept me on my toes looking for the right entry point to go short DXY.

And on the daily scale I feel like the compression breakout is a good signal to test the waters on the short side.
I used this opportunity to get short the USDCAD (forex). Â As with any trade, I’ll keep my risk on a leash. But this setup came together at the right time, technically speaking. Thanks for reading.
