As of writing, the dollar index notched up 0.13% to 97.32. According to reports, People\u2019s Bank of China Governor Yi Gang stated that the trade negotiation in between US and China have reached consensus on a number of crucial issues while discussing previous commitments made by Group of 20 nations on avoiding competitive devaluation of currencies. He mentioned that both countries have discussed about respecting the \u201cautonomy\u201d of each other\u2019s monetary policy. Although Yi\u2019s comment address US concerns over China\u2019s potential depreciation of yuan to blunt the impact of tariffs, he avoided any mention of one-sided pledge by Beijing to hold its currency stable. Currency stability has been the key points in talks in the recent week, as President Donald Trump pushes to seal a deal between both countries. On the other hand, pair of AUD\/USD depreciates by 0.13% to 0.7035 during Asian trading session.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As for commodities market, crude oil price extended gains by 0.61% to $56.30 per barrel. Oil futures remains well in bid following OPEC-led supply cuts which will unlikely to end anytime soon. In addition, US Baker Hughes shows that last week\u2019s oil rig count fell by 9 to 834, its third weekly drop since mid-February. On the other hand, gold price slumped by 0.11% to $1,296.65 a troy ounce following a rebound in 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>07:00 (12<sup>th<\/sup>)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 USD\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 Fed Chair Powell Speaks<\/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%\">15:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">EUR \u2013 German Industrial Production (MoM) (Jan)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">-0.4%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.5%<\/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 Core Retail Sales (MoM) (Jan)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">-1.8%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.4%<\/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 Retail Sales (MoM) (Jan)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">-1.2%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.0%<\/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><strong>\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-49192\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/03\/110319-DOLLAR_INDX_-noon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded higher following prior rebound from the support level at 97.20.
