Reminder: North America will implement winter time from this Sunday to March 10, 2019. The trading time and data release time will be one hour later than the summer time. attention please!
 
Personal opinions today:
 
A few days ago, the US private sector announced ADP farm employment reported reached 227,000 better than last month, revised figures of 218,000 and market expectations of 189,000, and US labor costs rose quarter-to-quarter, better than market expectations. It is expected that the number of job data in October announced by the US Department of Labor will increase to nearly 210,000 to 230,000. If the actual result meets the range or beats the number, it will help boost the dollar. However, it is necessary to pay attention to the unemployment rate and the average wage announced at the same time. Because the unemployment rate is falling and the average wage is rising, the strength of the dollar can be extended. Otherwise, the strength of the dollar will be temporary.
 
At present, the EU has reached an agreement on the financial services after the Brexit. The Brexit Minister said that the Brexit Agreement will be completed by November 21, and the US and Europe and the United States will rebound from the low level. The news will support the Euro, causing the US dollar to fall, stimulating other currencies against the US dollar. The price of gold has risen. Therefore, the performance of the US employment report tonight will be the key. ,
