April 25, 2018.
The dollar index traded lower reversing after four days of gains as investors look for places other than the greenback for their FX market short term strategies. Despite the weakness in the US equity markets yesterday the safe heavens reversed only slightly, Gold, Silver and the JPY all moved higher yet the moves were capped and showed no high volume or specific interest. Oil reversed lower ahead of the most important inventories number today to close below 68$ per barrel after trading as high as 69.5$ yesterday.
US OIL Inventories at 3:30 pm is the important news on the agenda Wednesday.
