As widely expected by traders, ECB left their interest rate unchanged at 0.00%. In a statement released by the central bank, ECB comments that they would need to maintain a highly accommodative policy for a prolonged period of time and take into action if inflation outlook falls short of its expectation. However, Euro received some bearish pressure after ECB President Mario Draghi commented that the economic outlook is getting \u201cworse and worse\u201d due to ongoing trade war and possibility of a hard Brexit from the UK. He postulates that an economic rebound during the second half of the year is \u201cless likely\u201d but reiterates that the risks for a recession still remains low. Following his statements delivered during the press conference, market participants are currently speculating for an interest rate cut in September and possibility for an extensive bond purchasing program (QE). As of writing, pair of EUR\/USD ticks up 0.02% to 1.1145. On the other hand, greenback rose 0.06% to 97.46 during Asian trading session. US dollar remains well supported after Core Durable Goods Orders and Initial Jobless Claims exceed economist expectation with 1.2% and 206K respectively.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price rose 0.25% to $55.91 per barrel. Oil futures continues to hover within a tight price range due to an array of mixed signals in the market such as global economic slowdown and ongoing supply cuts from OPEC. Similarly, gold price rose 0.11% to $1,415.76 a troy ounce due to higher risk aversion from the euro market post ECB meeting.<\/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=\"51%\"><strong>Nation &amp; Data<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\"><strong>Previous<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\"><strong>Forecast<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\"><strong>Actual<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">20:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">USD \u2013 GDP (QoQ) (Q2)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">3.1%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">1.8%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">01:00<\/p>\n<p>(27<sup>th<\/sup>)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"51%\">CrudeOIL \u2013 US Baker Hughes Oil Rig Count<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">779<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#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-70496\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/07\/260719-DOLLARINDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H1: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded higher while currently testing the resistance of 97.50.
