As you can see, a full 25bp of tightening has not been priced in for the U.S. In contrast, the market expects 2 quarter point hikes from the BoE, ECB, BoC and RBNZ this year. Rate hike expectations can and will change with incoming economic data but these numbers explain why the dollar could under perform this year

Past performance is not indicative of future results. Trading forex carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to trade any such leveraged products you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading on margin, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
