Both Euro and Sterling extended its gains for the past few days as Brexit negotiators continue to hint positive progress on the ongoing discussion of Brexit deal. EU Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier commented that Britain and Brussels have agreed on a majority of withdrawal agreement ahead of EU Summit next week. Such signal has eased investors fear that Britain may leave EU next March without a trade agreement. Otherwise, yesterday\u2019s the release of mixed data on wholesale inflation from the US has failed to cap greenback downside momentum. According to US Labor Department, while Producer Price Index came in as expected with the reading of 0.2% for month-over-month comparison, the data only rose to 2.6% for year-over-year comparison, missing economist forecast for a 2.8% increase. As of writing, dollar index depreciates by 0.09% to 95.02, GBP\/USD rose 0.12% to 1.3210 while EUR\/USD was up 0.10% to 1.1533.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price was down 0.07%, last seen around $72.52 as of writing. The commodity received significant bearish pressure on yesterday after IMF lowered its global economic growth forecast which may reflect significant impact over crude oil demand in the global production sector. Otherwise, gold price tacks up 0.02% to $1,194.62 a troy ounce following weaker 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>19:20\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 CrudeOIL\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 OPEC Monthly Report<\/p>\n<p>19:30\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\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 ECB Publishes Account of Monetary Policy Meeting<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economic 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%\">20:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">USD \u2013 Core CPI (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%\">20:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">USD \u2013 Initial Jobless Claims<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">207K<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">206K<\/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%\">CAD \u2013 New Housing Price Index (MoM) (Aug)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.1%<\/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%\">23:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">CrudeOIL \u2013 Crude Oil Inventories<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">7.975M<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">2.620M<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#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-34812\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/111018-DOLLARINDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded lower following prior retrace from the 20-MA line (red).
