As Saudi Arabia servers tie with Iran, oil price surged sharply in the first trading day of 2016 on Jan 3. WTI slumped to USD 33.98, approaching the lowest price at 33.20 since mid-February 2009. With that being the case,there should be enough support that provides more trading opportunities. The US Dollar index made a strong presence in the new year’s trading session, attempting to reach 100. But we still hold a conservative view towards US Dollar.
