On Tuesday, the evergreen buck traded steadily around four-month maximums. Market participants were waiting for a political decision by the Federal Reserve as well as key employment data in America, which might further influence the US dollar.

The dollar index versus six leading currencies changed a bit, showing 91.805 having soared to 91.986 on Monday, which turns to be the strongest value since January 11.
In April, the American currency leapt 2% after the 10-year revenue of the US Treasury rallied above the psychologically significant 3% threshold to four-year maximums the previous week.
The US currency gained recent support right after the common currency dived to nearly three-month minimums overnight on weak retail sales data in March that exacerbated hopes that the European Central Bank would soon get down to unwinding its huge incentives.
