Comments: The dollar fell lower earlier today, but the expected stimulus package which is being debated by congress at the moment is giving the buck the strength as investors see the stimulus package as a step in the right direction to boost macroeconomic activities in the US. Technically we can see the instrument is on a strong resistance zone and it is unlikely for price to move higher.
