Fed's new hardline stance fuels a stronger dollar — ride the currency wave

Thesis

When the central bank keeps interest rates elevated, it attracts global capital seeking those high returns, driving up the value of the dollar. With massive new tech investments and stock market activity demanding U.S. currency, this fundamental tailwind suggests the dollar's recent strength has legs.

Strategy approach

Develop a trend-following strategy on UUP (Invesco DB US Dollar Index Bullish Fund) on the daily timeframe. Enter a long position when the 50-day simple moving average crosses above the 200-day simple moving average. Exit when the 50-day crosses back below the 200-day.
