US government announced on yesterday to charge Huawei\u2019s Chief Financial Officer and two affiliates with bank wire fraud for violation against international sanction enacted upon Iran. Investors fear that the charges could complicate high level trade talks which is set to being tomorrow as China\u2019s Premier Liu He will meet with US trade representative Robert Lighthizer. On the other hand, greenback remains under pressure while investors anticipate the outcome of Federal Reserve monetary policy meeting. Traders are widely expecting the Fed to adopt a more cautious stance as recent corporate earnings and economic data shows signs of diminishing momentum. As of writing, pair of USD\/JPY depreciates by 0.09% to 109.23 while the dollar index was down 0.01% to 95.35.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities section, crude oil price rose 0.10% to $51.93 per barrel. Oil prices received some bullish support after Trump administration imposed a series of sanctions upon Venezuelan state-owned oil firm, severely curbing its exports to the United States. Similarly, gold price rose 0.05% to $1,303.99 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 Economic Data<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"101%\">\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=\"12%\"><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%\">23:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">USD \u2013 CB Consumer Confidence (Jan)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">128.1<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">124.7<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">05:30 (30<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=\"12%\">6.550M<\/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><strong><u>Technical Analysis<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-45446\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/01\/290119-DOLLARINDX-noon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H1: <\/strong>Dollar index remains traded within a sideways channel in between 95.60 and 95.30.
