There's a disorderly rout in the oil market as Saudi Arabia declares a price war on Russia and the U.S. after being snubbed at Friday's OPEC+ meeting. Kingdom plans to ramp up output over the next month to well over 10 million barrels a day, while the state oil company has already slashed official selling prices for its flaghip Arab Light blend to $10.25 below the global benchmark Brent. The move marks the end of four years of cooperation between OPEC and Russia and the start of a new free-for-all – not least at the expense of U.S. producers, many of whom are highly-indebted. This is a negative signal for the oil market. Desk Federal Reserve Bank of New York will increase the amount offered in the two-week term repo operations on Tuesday, March 10, 2020 and Thursday, March 12, 2020 from at least $20 billion to at least $45 billion. This is a positive signal!
Trading recommendation: range Buy 33.60 and take profit 35.50

Investors are expected a 10 basis-point cut to the deposit rate European Central Bank and an increase in monthly bond purchases of between 10 and 20 billion euros. This is a negative signal for gold!
Trading recommendation: Sell 1670 and take profit 1650.
