SYDNEY, March 20 (Reuters) - The dollar index .DXY was steady at 100.31 in quiet early trade on Monday after a meeting of the financial leaders of the world's biggest economies in Germany over the weekend.
Other major currencies such as the yen JPY= , the euro EUR= and pound sterling GBP= were also little changed. The Australian dollar held at $0.7687, down 0.16 percent.
G20 finance ministers and central bankers dropped a pledge to keep global trade free and open, acquiescing to an increasingly protectionist United States after a two-day meeting failed to yield a compromise.
