DXY · US Dollar Index

## DXY overview
DXY measures the US dollar against a basket of major currencies and is often used as a macro reference for EUR/USD, gold, oil and emerging-market FX. It is not a normal FX pair, and CFD quotes, hours and contract specs can differ by platform.

## Trading risk
DXY reacts to the Fed, US inflation, NFP, bond yields and safe-haven flows. Check contract value, financing, price feed and slippage around major data.
