The index closed at 98.641 after reaching a session high of 98.671, holding above its key resistance zone and consolidating gains made earlier in the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This dollar strength comes in the wake of the US Federal Reserve\u2019s latest policy decision, where the central bank opted to keep rates unchanged but delivered a more dovish forecast than markets had anticipated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The US economy is decelerating so much that we should expect Fed rate cuts to resume in September. That\u2019s largely bullish for Treasuries but bearish for the US dollar and equities. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7o23v3rudx\">https:\/\/t.co\/7o23v3rudx<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Bloomberg (@business) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/business\/status\/1935412350724583516?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 18, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chair Jerome Powell <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/IstIT9bcc9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">signalled a potentially inflationary outlook<\/a> driven by President Trump\u2019s tariff policies and trade disruptions, warning that price pressures could resurface in the coming months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Surprisingly, the Fed also adjusted its 2025 forecast to include two rate cuts of 25 basis points each\u2014up from the one previously expected by most traders. This shift has recalibrated expectations across Treasury markets and forex desks, leading to fresh inflows into the greenback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further bolstering the dollar is its safe-haven status amid deteriorating global risk sentiment. The Israel-Iran conflict, now in its second week, has <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sYpb9TWurR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">reintroduced war premium pricing <\/a>across asset classes. US officials have yet to confirm involvement, but sources suggest contingency plans are being drafted in case of escalation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Tw6AMdrCQe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">issued a sharp warning to the US<\/a>, declaring that any military intervention would result in \u201cirreparable damage.\u201d This rhetoric has increased trader demand for defensive assets, including the dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Technical Analysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The US Dollar Index (USDX) is showing a firm bullish continuation pattern on the 15-minute timeframe. After forming a solid base around <strong>97.529<\/strong>, the index initiated a strong uptrend, creating higher lows and higher highs. Price has now climbed steadily to <strong>98.641<\/strong>, nearing key resistance around the <strong>98.67\u201398.70<\/strong> zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/en-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2026\/03\/1_image-22-1024x440.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24686\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Picture: Consolidation breakout pushes USDX toward fresh highs, as seen on the <a href=\"https:\/\/vtmarketsapp.onelink.me\/CD7D\/240525WA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">VT Markets app<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>moving averages (5, 10, 30)<\/strong> are aligned in bullish formation, with the shorter-term averages consistently leading above the longer-term 30-period MA, reinforcing the current uptrend. The <strong>MACD<\/strong> also supports this momentum: the histogram is expanding positively, and the MACD line remains above the signal line, suggesting strong underlying bullish sentiment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Price action shows brief consolidation between <strong>98.20\u201398.40<\/strong>, forming a flag pattern that resolved to the upside. The breakout is now testing fresh highs with minimal retracement\u2014indicating buyers are in control<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With both monetary policy uncertainty and geopolitical risk at the forefront, the US dollar may continue to benefit from risk-off flows in the near term. However, if inflation does rise while the Fed remains committed to rate cuts, the greenback could soon face a crosscurrent of conflicting macro forces. For now, the bullish bias remains intact as long as USDX holds above the 98.4 level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/trade-now\/\">Create your live VT Markets account<\/a><\/strong><strong> and <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/myaccount.vtmarkets.com\/login?_gl=1*1azgbap*_gcl_au*NjE5NTE3MjY4LjE3NDQ2MDA3NDI.*_ga*MTY4OTgwNTU5Mi4xNzM2NzQ2MTgy*_ga_J26NL1ZVX7*czE3NDQ5NDQ0NTYkbzEyMCRnMCR0MTc0NDk0NDQ1NiRqNjAkbDAkaDA.\">start trading<\/a><\/strong><strong> now.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The dollar consolidates gains on Thursday after dovish Fed projections and rising global tensions spur safe-haven flows. &#8211;
