Price action in Dollar Index (UUP), shows familiar signs of a trap.

Price action closed yesterday at the low … after a prior lower close.

This morning opened gap-higher and near yesterday’s highs.

Price action then went higher … setting the hook.

Anything can happen and the bears can find some extra muscle somewhere. One gets the sense though, we’re at a pivotal juncture.
