Recent economic data from the region failed to provide any bullish support on the sterling as the market sees diminishing activity in terms of manufacturing, construction and services sector. Likewise, recent speech from new UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson falls within expectation as he reiterates to initiate Brexit by 31<sup>st<\/sup> October 2019. Boris whom is a hard Brexit advocate spooks off traders from the UK market as it may jeopardize their economy further. In the case of hard Brexit and the lack of any special arrangement, UK and EU will fallback to trade policies as per World Trade Organization and may spike up the tariffs rate for both UK and EU. For the time being, investors will keep a close eye upon UK\u2019s economy and Brexit development in order to receive further market signals. As of writing, pair of GBP\/USD slumped 0.07% to 1.2372. On the other hand, the dollar index depreciates by 0.06% to 97.65 this morning. US dollar retraces from its prior high levels while market participants waits for the imminent release of Federal Reserve interest rate decision whom is expected to cut their benchmark rate by 25 basis points to 2.25%.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In terms of commodities market, crude oil price slipped 0.18% to $55.95 per barrel. Oil price received some bearish pressure after an emergency meeting was held with Iran to discuss with regards to nuclear arrangement. Diminishing risks in the Middle East forces traders to cut their bullish bets on oil futures which may increase in price due to shortage of supply if a war broke out in the region. On the other hand, gold price rose 0.26% to $1,422.20 a troy ounce due to weaker 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<p>N\/A<\/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-70866\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/07\/290719-DOLLAR_INDX-noon-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H1: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded higher following prior rebound from the 20 moving average line (Red).
