On data front, Japan\u2019s Tankan Manufacturing Index have dropped to -27 in the last quarter, weaker than market expectation of -23. At the same time, Tankan Non Large Non-Manufacturing Index also fell to -12, missing market expectation of -9. The weaker-than-expected data have exert some pressure for the safe-haven Yen, however, ongoing risk off mood due to coronavirus and various geopolitical issues have help limit the downside potential. As the coronavirus risk continue to terrorize global market, the uncertainty towards vaccine progress have caused investors to remain cautious and decreasing their risk appetite. At home, Nikkei also came out with the news suggesting that the Japan government is ready for further stimulus if required. At the time of writing, USD\/JPY slips 0.06% to 105.49.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price soars 0.88% to $40.16 per barrel as of writing following stimulus hopes that could help support the market. The sentiment for the black commodity was lifted after U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said talks with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made progress on COVID-19 relief legislation. At the same time, market continue to cheer on positive reports from EIA where it reported a decrease in stockpiles. On the other hand, gold price edge lower 0.08% to $1889.33 a troy ounce at the time of writing following volatility induced by the strong 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 EUR\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-142706\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/011020-DOLLAR_INDX-Noon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded lower following prior breakout below the previous support level 93.90.
