As of writing, the dollar index was quoted down 0.37% to 97.07 during early Asian trading session. According to US Commerce Department, retail sales rose by 0.2% for the month of January while December\u2019s reading received a downward revision to -1.6%. Although the latest data beats economist expectation to remain flat at 0.0%, the downward revision has portrayed three consecutive months of downtrend, raising higher concern over shrinkage in consumer spending. Moving forward, investors will be placing their focus upon US inflation data due later tonight while broader risk appetite in the market will be vigilant towards the meaningful vote upon PM Theresa May\u2019s Brexit deal. In the UK front, pair of GBP\/USD skyrocketed 0.71% to 1.3244 following last-minute Brexit talks between UK and EU. According to reports, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said that the European Union President Jean-Claude Juncker had made a \u201cvery important\u201d offer towards the UK in order to break the deadlock in Brexit talks. Majority of market participants poured into pound sterling over speculation that both EU and UK may agree over Irish backstop that may provide some support towards May\u2019s Brexit deal during parliamentary vote.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As for commodities, crude oil price tacks up 0.21% to $56.85 per barrel. Oil price extended its gains after Saudi Arabia announced that OPEC-led supply cuts will unlikely to end before June. Quoting Saudi Energy Minister Khalid al-Falih, he said that it would be too early to change the pact while they will continue to take a proactive approach to rebalance the global supply and demand. On the other hand, gold price depreciates by 0.03% to $1,292.93 a troy ounce following diminishing risks in the market.<\/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>03:00 (13<sup>th<\/sup>)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 GBP\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0UK Parliament vote on Brexit deal<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u><br \/>\n<\/u><\/p>\n<p><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/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%\">17:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">GBP \u2013 GDP (MoM) (Jan)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">-0.4%<\/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%\">17:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">GBP \u2013 Manufacturing Production (MoM) (Jan)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">-0.7%<\/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 Core CPI (MoM) (Feb)<\/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%\">04:30<\/p>\n<p>(13<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%\">7.290M<\/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>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Technical Analysis<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-49317\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/03\/120319-DOLLARINDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, Daily: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded lower following prior retrace from the upper level.
