Aus diesem Chart, in dem der Index die relative Stärke des Dollars gegenüber einem Korb anderer Währungen abbildet,
ergibt sich technisch gesehen eine prekäre "Free Fall"-Situation für den USD. Ob der Verfasser richtig liegt, wenn er
davon ausgeht, dass niemand in das fallende Messer greifen wird? Wir werden sehen.

In the above chart is plotted a dollar index built on the median movement of the dollar versus a basket of major currencies. In today’s world, capital flows dominate all other considerations in determining the relative values of currencies. The widely used trade-weighted index is a fairly obsolete concept, built on early 20th century concepts of trade, but remains commonly used. The median is used as a measure of central tendency to avoid the distortions that often develop when using common averages.
In that chart is an ominous picture. The U.S. dollar is breaking what little support might have existed. The U.S. dollar is about to go into free fall. Just as traders were quick to ride the dollar higher, on false pretenses, traders will be as quick to sell the dollar. Already, some currencies have rallied strongly against the dollar. No one observing a chart of the U.S. dollar is going to be willing to grab this “the falling knife.”
