The U.S. government was expected to vote on the $2.2 trillion package on Wednesday, though failure to reach on any agreement had prompted the U.S. policymakers to push back the voting on the stimulus bill to Thursday. Nonetheless, U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin touted progress on stimulus talks while reiterated that he was hopeful about getting a deal done. However, the losses experienced by the US Dollar was limited over the backdrop of the upbeat economic data on yesterday. According to Automatic Data Processing (ADP), the U.S. ADP Nonfarm Employment Change notched up significantly from the previous reading of 481K to 749K, confounding market forecast for a reading up to 650K. Similarly, the U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for last quarter came in at -31.4%, which fared better than the market expectation at -31.7%. At this time, investors would continue to scrutinize the latest updates with regards of the latest economic stimulus plan as well as the Non-farm payroll data which will be released tomorrow in order to gauge the likelihood movement for the pair. As of writing, the Dollar index depreciated by 0.09% to 93.85.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, the crude oil price surged 0.53% to $40.05 per barrel as of writing amid positive crude oil inventory data on yesterday. According to Energy Information Administration (EIA), the U.S. Crude Oil Inventories came in at -1.980M, much lower than the market forecast at 1.569M. On the other hand, the gold price appreciated by 0.14% to $1888.07 per troy ounces amid weakening in US Dollar.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Holiday Market Close<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>N\/A<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Events<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>18:00\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 EUR\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 EU Leaders Summit<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economic Data<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"105%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\"><strong>Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\"><strong>Nation &amp; Data<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\"><strong>Previous<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\"><strong>Forecast<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\"><strong>Actual<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">15:55<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">EUR &#8211; German Manufacturing PMI (Sep)<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">56.6<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">56.6<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">16:30<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">GBP &#8211; Manufacturing PMI (Sep)<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">54.3<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">54.3<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">20:30<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">USD &#8211; Initial Jobless Claims<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">870K<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">850K<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"11%\">22:00<\/td>\n<td width=\"53%\">USD &#8211; ISM Manufacturing PMI (Sep)<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">56.0<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">56.2<\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Technical Analysis<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-142627\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/011020-DOLLAR_INDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, <\/strong><strong>H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded lower while currently near the support level at 93.55.
