Overnight, pound sterling received larger buyback from investors as they cheered over a report that suggests both UK and EU are making progress in Brexit talks just weeks before the crucial EU summit bound to be held later in October. Both countries were reportedly close to reaching a deal over Brexit divorce terms as soon as Monday while some indifferences on the Ireland border remained as the main issue. As for now, UK and EU are aiming to draft an outline of future trade relationship by coming November. As of writing, dollar index was down 0.09% to 95.30 while GBP\/USD rose 0.09% to 1.3156. On the other hand, pair of EUR\/USD recovered its losses by 0.14% to 1.1506 this morning. However, any substantial gains on the pair were limited as Italy\u2019s budget conundrum with the European Commission continues to haunt market participants.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities section, crude oil price rose 0.11% to $74.71 this morning while shrugging off two-days of losses. The commodities received some support following investor\u2019s worries of a hurricane swirling towards US Gulf Coast while data showed that Iranian crude exports were down by more than half prior to sanction enactment. Otherwise, gold price ticked up 0.01% to $1,189.93 a troy ounce following weaker 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>N\/A<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economy Data<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\"><strong>Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\"><strong>Market &amp; Data<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\"><strong>Previous<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\"><strong>Forecast<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\"><strong>Actual<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">16:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">GBP \u2013 GDP (MoM)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.3%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.1%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">16:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">GBP \u2013 Manufacturing Production (MoM) (Aug)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">-0.2%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.1%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">20:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">USD \u2013 PPI (MoM) (Sep)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">-0.1%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.2%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">04:30 (11<sup>th<\/sup>)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">CrudeOIL \u2013 API Weekly Crude Oil Stock<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.907M<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\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-34665\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/101018-DOLLARINDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H1: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded lower following prior breakout from the bottom level of ascending channel.
