Today is big news, FOMC statement, I think it will move the market strongly.

I expect 25bp rise in interest rate.

I want you all on the same page so you can watch/monitor the news yourself and be more informed trader. This is a short guide or reminder in case you aren't sure about the terms:

When the Federal Reserve (FED) is hawkish or dovish, it refers to their stance on monetary policy. Monetary policy involves controlling the money supply and interest rates to influence the economy.

Hawkish:
When the FED is hawkish, they're concerned about inflation (rising prices) and want to prevent the economy from overheating. They usually raise interest rates, making it more expensive to borrow money, which slows down economic growth. This stance is like a hawk because they're being vigilant and aggressive in their actions.

Dovish:
When the FED is dovish, they're focused on stimulating economic growth and reducing unemployment. They usually lower interest rates, making it cheaper to borrow money, which encourages spending and investment. This stance is like a dove because they're being gentle and supportive in their actions.

Interest Rates and Currency:

Rising Interest Rates:
When interest rates rise, it typically strengthens the currency. This happens because higher interest rates attract foreign investors seeking better returns on their investments. They buy the local currency to invest in local assets, which increases demand for the currency and pushes its value up.

Example: If the FED raises interest rates, the US dollar (USD) may strengthen. This means that 1 USD can buy more of another currency, like the Euro, than before.

Falling Interest Rates:
When interest rates fall, it usually weakens the currency. This happens because lower interest rates discourage foreign investors, as they can get better returns elsewhere. They sell the local currency to invest in other countries, which decreases demand for the currency and pushes its value down.

Example: If the FED lowers interest rates, the US dollar (USD) may weaken. This means that 1 USD can buy less of another currency, like the Euro, than before.
