The dollar recovered against the euro after two straight sessions of losses on the view that the Fed will still hike interest rates this year, while the European Central Bank continues with its bond-buying stimulus program.

Analysts said the dollar will continue to find support as it hits key lows against other currencies, despite being weighed down by the dovish Fed statement, which suggested a less aggressive timeline for hiking rates.

Analysts said traders abstained from making sizable bets on the dollar or euro and instead awaited further economic data releases, which could offer cues on the Fed's timeline for hiking rates.
The dollar sharply pared earlier losses against the euro after data showing U.S. consumer prices rebounded in February. The dollar later retraced losses before recovering.
