Several major banks are reconsidering their 2026 USD outlook. According to Rabobank analyst Jane Foley, expectations for a sharp dollar decline may need adjustment. Instead of the anticipated steep downtrend, the US dollar could be locked in volatile, range-bound trading throughout next year. This perspective matters for investors tracking currency moves, especially those exposed to crypto markets where USD strength typically creates headwinds. Rather than making directional bets on a weaker greenback, traders might prepare for sideways price action and increased volatility around key support and resistance levels.

Oh no, are you doing this again? The banks keep changing their statements, I already said don't believe in sharp decline, it's all nonsense.
Wait, are you really still betting on the dollar crashing? I'm laughing...
Range fluctuation? Isn't that saying no one knows which way it will go? Just say it.
The crypto market fears this the most. When the dollar is strong, it has to catch its breath. Now it has to dance around volatility. Whoever enjoys it, go ahead.
It will be like this in 2026. I bet the opposite will make money.

Predicting the US dollar again, banks are changing their tune so quickly? Last year they said it would plummet, now they've changed to a range of fluctuations. Truly unpredictable. Anyway, we're used to it in the crypto world, just waiting for the dollar strength to dump the market.

Here comes another round of USD manipulation, I've seen through the sideways consolidation long ago
sideways again and again, do banks really not make mistakes?
If the dollar really crashes wildly, I would believe it, but this time I can't
2026, right? I bet a Bitcoin won't be this obedient

Huh? Changed his tune again, now saying the US dollar will fluctuate, what about the previous prediction of a sharp decline?
---
Alright, anyway, that's how the crypto world is, no matter how the US dollar moves, it’s uncomfortable.
---
Consolidating in a range? Then I guess I have to hold onto the support level and fight it out, so annoying.
---
I’ve already said not to trust analysts’ one-sided predictions, and this time they finally told the truth.
---
US dollar locked in a range... sounds like no one dares to confirm the direction.
---
Wait a minute, does this mean crypto still has to be suppressed by the US dollar for a whole year? That’s a bit mute.
---
Banks have changed their tone, what does that mean? It just means they totally misjudged earlier.
