The Dollar Index is broadly weaker today, with EUR/USD gaining 29 pips. EUR/USD now holds 1.1566, up 0.29% on the session. This move is driven by a less hawkish Fed outlook. News confirms Fed officials are divided on rate hikes. USD/JPY dipped 9 pips to 159.24. Meanwhile, GBP/USD gained 33 pips, reaching 1.3535. While no explicit exotic pair shows unusual volatility today, broader dollar sentiment is key. The "Fed Officials Divided" headline highlights policy uncertainty. This creates a dovish undertone for the dollar. We've seen no new statements from the ECB or BOJ this week. For tomorrow, watch EUR/USD resistance at 1.1600. Support sits around 1.1530. USD/JPY faces resistance at 159.50, with support near 159.00. Stay informed with rawfin.tv.
