The Asia session has now opened, the trades involving the strengthening of the USD are going in the direction of a stronger dollar (Longing the USD as opposed to the shorting of the USD currency pairs). From observation regardless of what may have seemed a downside movement on the USD pairs, an example being the USD/CAD. It seemed to have hit strong resistance, however, with the reversal of the DXY on Sunday Asia session opening USD pairs have reversed in the opposing direction. I gather the pivotal movements of the DXY have a great influence on the USD pairing and should be observed at all times prior to taking positions involving the majors.
