US Dollar Index (DX) sits in the middle of its 52-week range. No stored squeeze fuel in either direction — positioning here is context, not a signal.
Δ has flipped against the net position — the crowd started unwinding this week. That flip, not the size of the position, is the closest thing to an ignition signal in the data we tested (Idx ≤10 plus a positive Δ hit ≈61% over the following week).
The Dollar Index is the exception to everything above: extreme DX positioning is a momentum signal, not reversal fuel (+1.07% over 8 weeks after the most-bullish bucket, t = 5.18).
