In an event hosted by the central bank, Orr stated that the bank is switching from neutral to easing bias following recessive risks in the market. Prior, RBNZ stunned the market after signaling to initiate a rate cut in the future rather than keeping it unchanged. RBNZ stated that they will remain focused upon inflation and employment objective while pursuing to maintain a stable inflationary level and financial market. Likewise, the currency received further bearish pressure after market participants flock to other assets as US and China restart their much-awaited trade negotiation which may bring volatility to the currency. In the US, greenback begins to retrace from its prior high levels following dovish outlook towards its economic progression. Thus far, US economic growth slowed down during the end of 2018, falling below Trump\u2019s administration forecast. Such reading comes hand-in-hand with other major markets in the world which may brew higher concern towards global economic slowdown for the year 2019. As of writing, pair of NZD\/USD depreciate by 0.10% to 0.6785 while the dollar index ticked down 0.01% to 96.72.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As for commodities, crude oil price rose 0.17% to $59.38 per barrel during mid-Asian session. Oil prices set for its biggest first-quarter gain since 2009 following OPEC-led supply cuts and US sanction against oil producing country such as Iran and Venezuela. Otherwise, gold price depreciates by 0.07% to $1,289.46 a troy ounce as market participants shifts their focus towards other emerging markets.<\/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>Tentative (30<sup>th<\/sup>)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 GBP\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 UK Parliament vote on Brexit deal<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economic Data<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"105%\">\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%\">16:55<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"52%\">EUR \u2013 German Unemployment Change<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">-21K<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">-10K<\/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=\"52%\">GBP \u2013 GDP (QoQ) (Q4)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">1.3%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">1.3%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">18:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"52%\">EUR \u2013 CPI (YoY) (Mar)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">1.5%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">&#8211;<\/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=\"52%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.investing.com\/economic-calendar\/pending-home-sales-232\">CAD<\/a> \u2013 GDP (MoM) (Jan)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">-0.1%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.1%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">22:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"52%\">USD \u2013 Michigan Consumer Sentiment (Mar)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">97.8<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">97.8<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">22:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"52%\">USD \u2013 New Home Sales (Feb)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">607K<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">620K<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"14%\">01:00 (30<sup>th<\/sup>)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"52%\">CrudeOIL \u2013 US Baker Hughes Oil Rig Count<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">824<\/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-51579\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/03\/290319-DOLLAR-INDX-Noon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded higher while currently testing near the resistance level 96.80.
