Dollar Teeters on Support Ahead of Crucial CPI and Fed Decisions

The US dollar is clinging to key support levels ahead of the upcoming Consumer Price Index (CPI) release and the Federal Reserve's next policy decision. The currency has been volatile in recent weeks, influenced by expectations surrounding interest rate hikes.

FOREX.com notes that the USD has been trading within a defined range, with the 50-day moving average providing support. However, if the dollar breaks below this level, it could lead to further declines and potentially trigger stop-loss orders.

The upcoming CPI data is expected to have a significant impact on market sentiment, particularly in light of recent inflation concerns. The Federal Reserve's decision will also be closely watched, as traders await clarity on interest rate hikes.
