Frequently Asked Questions

Q What is the USD forecast for tomorrow?

USD is projected near 15.9961 versus the latest reference around 15.8800. That implies a modeled move of +0.69% over the next day, with realized prices still sensitive to intraday volatility.

Q What does the 7-day outlook suggest for USD?

The weekly model points to 16.1229, which maps to an expected drift of +1.49% from current conditions. This horizon reacts quickly to momentum shifts, so breaks at nearby levels can change the path faster than long-term targets.

Q How should I read the 1-month and 1-year targets?

The 1-month target is 16.3851 (+3.14%), while the 1-year target is 15.4203 (-2.94%). The monthly view tracks prevailing trend pressure, and the yearly view reflects broader cycle assumptions and macro sensitivity.

Q Why does the 5-year scenario differ from shorter forecasts?

The long-horizon scenario sits near 15.0533 with a modeled change of -5.25%. It compounds cycle continuation assumptions over time, so it should be treated as a scenario envelope rather than a precise endpoint.

Q Where are the most important support and resistance zones right now?

Nearest resistance is around 16.4066, while nearest support is around 15.5624. A clean break above resistance improves continuation odds, while repeated closes under support raise downside risk.

Q How fresh are the recent high/low milestones?

The latest observed session range is roughly 15.8225 to 15.9854. These checkpoints are rebuilt from the live market snapshot so milestone context updates with each data refresh.
