DXY

The DXY (U.S. Dollar Index) measures the value of the U.S. dollar against a basket of six major foreign currencies: the euro (EUR), Japanese yen (JPY), British pound (GBP), Canadian dollar (CAD), Swedish krona (SEK), and Swiss franc (CHF). It reflects the overall strength or weakness of the dollar in the global market. The euro has the largest weight, making eurozone developments highly influential on the index. The DXY is impacted by U.S. economic data, Federal Reserve monetary policy, interest rates, and geopolitical events. A rising DXY indicates a stronger dollar, while a falling DXY suggests dollar weakness. Traders use it as a key indicator of USD trends.
