U.S. Dollar Index rallied as Donald Trump won the U.S. elections. Treasury yields jumped as traders bet on a less dovish Fed after Trump’s victory. The yield of 2-year Treasuries settled above the 4.28% level, while the yield of 10-year Treasuries moved above 4.46%.

In case U.S. Dollar Index climbs above the recent highs at 105.44, it will move towards the next resistance, which is located in the 106.00 – 106.15 range.
