The US Dollar dollar fell on Tuesday, reversing earlier moves, as the market perceived comments by the Federal Reserve chair to be dovish. Despite hawkish rhetoric from Powell at the Economic Club of Washington as he reiterated getting inflation back to the Fed's 2% target will take time, the US Dollar was let go of due to prospects of inflation coming down this year.

The Euro is currently up against major trendline resistance but a break thereof for the day ahead will pout the bullish bias back in vouge.
