Pair of AUD\/USD tacks up 0.12% to 0.6925 as of writing. Earlier today, Australian dollar received some bidding in the FX market as Chinese iron ore prices hit a record high of CNY 774.5 per tonne. As iron ore makes up a bulk of Australia\u2019s commodity exports, any movement in its prices would be reflected upon the Australian dollar. However, gains on the currency remains limited as political and trade tension arises in between US and China. Prior, US President Donald Trump\u2019s statement shows lack of readiness to achieve a substantial trade deal with China, prompting higher short orders in the FX market. As China is one of Australia\u2019s major trade partner, any developments in trade war will affect the currency as well. For the week ahead, investor\u2019s will pay attention towards further market signal with regards to trade war as well as regional economic data to determine its near-term trend direction.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price rose 0.17% to $58.98 per barrel. Oil futures begins to recoup some of its losses as supply cuts lead by OPEC and US sanction against Iran outweighs market concern over possible economic slowdown. Otherwise, gold price depreciates by 0.13% to $1,283.35 a troy ounce due to a sharp 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>N\/A<\/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=\"13%\"><strong>Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"53%\"><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=\"13%\">13:45<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"53%\">CHF \u2013 GDP (QoQ) (Q1)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">0.2%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">0.3%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">22:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"53%\">USD \u2013 CB Consumer Confidence (May)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">129.2<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">130.1<\/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>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Technical Analysis<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61189\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/05\/280519-DOLLAR_INDX-Noon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded higher following prior rebound from the support level 97.40.
