In the first Asian trade, the dollar flagged against the euro and yen after a drop in US shares and bond yields dimmed its allure, with markets focused on whether the upcoming Federal Reserve policy meeting can shore up the greenback. The euro rose 0.2 percent to $1.1000, having gained about 1.4 percent last week.
The euro has lost as much as 5 percent against the dollar since mid-June on Greek debt worries and the divergence of US and European monetary policies, but a technical correction to the dollar's rally gave the euro a breather last week.
The dollar was available against the Indian rupee at Rs 64.05, the greenback was at 3.8130 in terms of the Malaysian ringgit and the US currency was at 6.2096 versus the Chinese yuan.
