  • The American Dollar trades flat on Wednesday, entering the CPI in the USA.
  • Fed Chairman Jerome Powell goes to his second day at Capitol Hill.
  • The American dollar index (DXY) flat -trading around 108.00, still looking for a direction.

The American dollar index (DXY), which follows the results of the American dollar (USD) compared to the six main currencies, trades about 108.00 unchanged after the chairman of the Federal Reserve (Fed) Jerome Powell did not leave any tips for markets when he will take place in the face of legislators on Tuesday at Capitol Hill. Powell has not left many tips on the date of the next interest rate reduction by the central bank, if it exists. Traders are wondering what to do next, and we are sluggish, but we certainly start higher this week.

The economic calendar shows that the number of consumer prices (CPI) for January is due on Wednesday. The expectations are not very high and the monthly CPI headline will augment by 0.3% compared to 0.4% in December. A monthly basic CPI rate is expected to augment by 0.3%, with 0.2% in the previous month. Meanwhile, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell will give a speech on the second day in a row at Capitol Hill.

American dollar index Technical Analysis: It’s strenuous to read

The American dollar index (DXY) got stuck in the Cliedo game, and the chairman of the detective Fed Powell does not distribute any tips. When traders left unaware of what or when the FED will perform their next move, slowly, but certainly, bonds return to the merchant’s grace as a safe and sound place during periods of uncertainty. Thanks to this, the American dollar should only, but certainly a bit of influx and ticking higher.

On the other hand, the first barrier at 109.30 (July 14, 2022, High) was briefly exceeded, but it did not take place last week. After recovering this level, the next level, which should be achieved before promotion, is 110.79 (September 7, 2022, High).

On the other hand, 107.35 (October 3, 2023) still acts as forceful support after several tests last week. In the event that there is more disadvantages, look for 106.52 (April 16, 2024, high), 106.21 (100-day straight moving average), and even 105.89 (resistance in June 2024) as better levels support.
