The dollar index was quoted up 0.02%, last seen around 95.20. According to US Bureau of Labor Statistics, Core Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the month of December came in as expected with 0.2%. However, gains on the greenback remains limited following dovish remarks from Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Last Thursday, Powell expressed that the central bank is in no hurry of raising interest rates as long as current inflation level remains at a stable condition. For the week, a number of Fed officials would be giving their speech this week which may provide additional opportunity that may reassure the market with regards to monetary policy outlook in the long-run. On the other hand, pound sterling extended gains by 0.09% to 1.2853 against the US dollar. Sterling remains in the forefront after some senior UK lawmakers admitted privately that more time is still needed even as UK Prime Minister Theresa May\u2019s Brexit draft receives the approval from parliament.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, crude oil price appreciates by 0.31% to $51.80 per barrel as recent data shows some easing in US oil drilling activities. According to Baker Hughes, the number of active oil rig was down by 4 to 873, indicating a possible drawdown in daily oil supply. Otherwise, gold price tacks up 0.07% to $1,288.53 a troy ounce after traders buy-in at a lower price.<\/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>All day\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 JPY\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Coming of Age (Adults\u2019) Day<\/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 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=\"52%\"><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%\">10:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"52%\">CNY \u2013 Trade Balance (USD) (Dec)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">44.71B<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">51.53B<\/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-43776\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/01\/140119-DOLLARINDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H1: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded lower following prior retracement from its recent high levels.
