As of writing, the dollar index was traded flat at 96.76. For the month of February, ADP Nonfarm Employment Change came in at 183,000 jobs, missing economists\u2019 expectation for a reading up to 189,000 jobs. However, previous month\u2019s reading was received an upward revision from 213,000 to 300,000. In terms of US trade condition, its deficit widened to $59.80 billion for the month of December after exports fell for third consecutive month to $205.10 billion. Current trade deficit which stood at its highest level in a decade delivers a severe blow to Trump\u2019s administration despite efforts to revive American manufacturing sector and reduce dependency on imported goods. However, economists\u2019 postulate that the widening gap for the month of December was partly due to a rush of import goods ahead of potential additional tariff increase from the administration. Likewise, the widening was also driven by stronger dollar and US economy, while US Federal Reserve whom continues to tighten their monetary setting sparked higher demand for the greenback. Against other currencies, pair of GBP\/USD was up 0.03% to 1.3173 while USD\/JPY slipped 0.04% to 111.70.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price ticked down 0.03% to $56.15 per barrel. Oil prices remains under pressure following a large increase in US crude inventories while market anxiety towards possible global recession continues to limit any substantial gains. On the other hand, gold price was traded flat around $1,286.45 a troy ounce as traders await the highly anticipated release of Nonfarm Payrolls report due tomorrow night.<br \/>\n<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>21:30\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\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 ECB Press Conference<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economic Data<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"104%\">\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%\">18:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">EUR \u2013 GDP (QoQ) (Q4)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">0.2%<\/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%\">20:45<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">EUR \u2013 Deposit Facility Rate<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">-0.40%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">-0.40%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">20:45<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">EUR \u2013 ECB Marginal Lending Facility<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">0.25%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.25%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">20:45<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">EUR \u2013 ECB Interest Rate Decision (Mar)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">0.00%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.00%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">21:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">USD \u2013 Nonfarm Productivity (QoQ) (Q4)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">2.2%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">1.6%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">21:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">USD \u2013 Initial Jobless Claims<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">225K<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">225K<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">21:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">USD \u2013 Unit Labor Costs (QoQ) (Q4)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">1.2%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">1.6%<\/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><strong><u>Technical Analysis<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-48858\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/03\/070319-DOLLARINDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H1: <\/strong>Dollar index remains traded within a sideways channel following prior retrace from the upper level.
