The US dollar index keeps rounding above the 103.60 historical support level. The buyers have already defended this level for three weeks, highlighting their interest in the greenback. Thus, buying USD looks less risky right now.
EUR/USD is moving in an uptrend. It has approached the key resistance of 1.2170, which it has failed to break a few times already. If it jumps above it, the way up to the next round number of 1.2200 will be clear. On the flip side, the pair is unlikely to break the 50-period moving average of 1.2130 as it has been nicely supporting the pair since November. The Fed’s meeting on Wednesday will have a huge impact on the pair.
The British pound regained its recent losses. GBP/USD is trading inside ascending channel. If it jumps above the key resistance of 1.3400, the way up to the high of December 3 at 1.3460 will be clear. On the flip side, the move below the recent lows of 1.3300 will push the pair to the next support of 1.3200.
XAU/USD has approached the level of the recent highs at $1 845. Since it has failed to cross it several times, we can expect the pullback. If it manages to break it through, the way up to the high of December 8 at $1 870 will be clear. Support levels are $1 810 and $1 770.
The Australian dollar dipped amid the risk-off market sentiment. It is getting closer to the key psychological mark of 0.7500. It’s unlikely to break it by the first attempt, therefore we may see a retracement. If it finally drops below 0.7500, the way down to the 50-period moving average of 0.7470 will be open. Resistance levels are 0.7580 and 0.7600.

On the H4 timeframe, the US dollar index has formed a bullish falling wedge. At the beginning of the trading session, the price is testing the upper border of this wedge. Thus, in case of a higher-than-expected Core PCE Price Index m/m, the US dollar will skyrocket against other currencies.
