According to Institute for Supply Management (ISM), its Non-Manufacturing PMI for the month of September depreciates from 56.4 to 52.6, at the same time missing forecast of 55.0. As non-manufacturing sector such as services largely contribute to US economy at around 70% of its Gross Domestic Product, a slump in its PMI has spurred higher concerns that Federal Reserve may cut its interest rates further in the future. Likewise, sentiment towards the greenback remains bleak after its recent Initial Jobless Claims data shows higher jobless count at 219,000 individuals, slightly higher than forecast of 215,000 individuals. On the other hand, pound sterling received tremendous selloff pressure on yesterday after EU rejected Brexit draft proposed by the UK. According to Chief EU Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier, he commented that some clause in the draft which includes Ireland border controls are irrelevant and he gives UK PM Boris Johnson a week to resubmit a new Brexit draft. As of writing, the dollar index was down 0.13% to 98.58 while pair of GBP\/USD appreciates by 0.09% to 1.2338.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, crude oil price recoup its losses by 0.13% to $52.36 per barrel. However, gains on the oil prices remains limited as ongoing trade war in between US and China may lead to global economic recession that could reduce oil demand in the long-run. On the other hand, gold price rose 0.16% to $1,507.43 a troy ounce due to higher risk aversion in the market.<\/p>\n<p><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/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>All Day\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 CNY\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 China \u2013 National Day<\/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><br \/>\n<\/u><\/p>\n<p><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/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=\"15%\"><strong>Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"49%\"><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=\"15%\">20:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"49%\">USD \u2013 Nonfarm Payrolls (Sep)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">130K<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">140K<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"15%\">20:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"49%\">USD \u2013 Average Hourly Earnings (MoM) (Sep)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">0.4%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">0.3%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"15%\">20:30<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"49%\">USD \u2013 Unemployment Rate (Sep)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">3.7%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">3.7%<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"15%\">22:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"49%\">CAD \u2013 Ivey PMI (Sep)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"13%\">60.6<\/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><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Technical Analysis<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-81480\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/10\/041019-DOLLARINDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded lower following prior closure below 98.65.
