Today's trading session is characterized by declines in US equities, which are bolstering the US dollar against major currencies.

In the case of EUR/USD, we can observe that the pair is currently testing a significant support zone at 1.08284. A breakthrough of this level could potentially trigger a new downward movement.

Adding to all of this, the S&P 500 volatility index is showing signs that it may rise again, which in theory should also support a recovery of the US dollar against other currencies, especially against the euro.
