DX futures is like any other futures instrument, take advantage of leverage for one, I disagree of predictive value as I do very long term holding of currencies, staying in positions years going for larger profits and hedging when possible, except with DX.
Think in terms of relationships or spreads to determine directions or when one is slower than other. i.e. June 11 & 4 between DX and Euro on dailies, one breaks out further than the other, and retracements are different. Either program backtest this formation or manually couple decades to get clearer understanding of what the past happened. Many will say can't use past to trade future, guess they flip a coin.
