USD Pairs Face Key Technical Test on Multi-Hike Fed Scenario

Technical charts across major USD pairs are converging on decision points as speculation grows that the Fed may not stop at a single rate hike. Historically, the central bank has rarely tightened just once per cycle, and that narrative is now feeding directly into dollar-pair price structures.

On higher timeframes, several USD crosses are testing prior consolidation zones that acted as pivot points during past tightening cycles. RSI on the weekly chart remains in neutral territory, leaving room for a sustained directional move once the Fed's policy path becomes clearer, rather than an immediate overbought or oversold extreme.

A breakout through these consolidation zones, confirmed by rising volume and MACD momentum shifts, would likely validate the next directional leg for dollar pairs, while a rejection could see price rotate back toward the middle of recent trading ranges as traders await further confirmation.
