The main events on March 21, 2017

- The dollar trended weaker in Asia on Tuesday with the Fed squarely in focus as policymaker speeches loom, though an extraordinary day of news about Russian meddling in the presidential election raised political risk.

- Gold prices dipped in Asia on Tuesday with sentiment on the outlook for Fed rate hikes driving the market, though an extraordinary day of news about Russian meddling in the presidential election raised political risk. Gold fell 0.15% to $1,232.15 a troy ounce.

-Gold fell 0.40% to 1,240.00 a troy ounce.
-Crude oil dipped in Asia on profit taking after three days of gains and despite upbeat figures from China on manufacturing and services for March that gained more than expected in cautious trade as U.S. rig count data lies ahead and markets look to a meeting between President Donald Trump and China's Xi Jinping in Florida that is seen as high stakes on trade.

RE: Daily Forex Analysis from FidelisCM
The main events on April 4, 2017

- The Aussie fell after Australia's central bank held steady as expected in its latest interest rate decision on Tuesday as investors detected tones of a more neutral bias and with investors cautious ahead of a meeting this week between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping in Florida expected to be contentious on trade.
-AUD/USD traded down 0.34% to 0.7580, while USD/JPY changed hands at 110.43, down 0.42%. The U.S. dollar index, which measures the greenback’s strength against a trade-weighted basket of six major currencies, eased 0.04% to 100.32.
-Gold drifted higher in Asia on Tuesday in cautious trade with China and India markets shut for holidays, putting the world's top gold importers on the sidelines, and with investors cautious ahead of a meeting this week between U.S. President Donald Trump and China's President Xi Jinping in Florida seen as high stakes on trade and geopolitical tensions in Asia.
-Gold gained 0.35% to $1,258.45 a troy ounce.
