USD/CAD Chart Analysis
USD/CAD Technical Analysis
On the daily timeframe, USDCAD: D1 approached the resistance line and the upper border of the triangle. It must be broken upward before opening a position. A number of technical analysis indicators have formed signals for further growth. We do not exclude a bullish move if USDCAD rises above the last high: 1.285. This level can be used as an entry point. The initial risk limitation is possible below the low since April 2018, the last lower fractal, the lower Bollinger line and the Parabolic signal: 1.26. After opening a pending order, move the stop following the Bollinger and Parabolic signals to the next fractal low. Thus, we change the potential profit/loss ratio in our favor. The most cautious traders, after making a deal, can go to the four-hour chart and set a stop-loss, moving it in the direction of movement. If the price overcomes the stop level (1.26) without activating the order (1.285), it is recommended to delete the order: there are internal changes in the market that were not taken into account.
Fundamental Analysis of Forex - USD/CAD
In Canada, the number of jobs fell in December. Will USDCAD quotes continue rising?
The upward movement means weakening of the Canadian dollar against the US dollar. The Canadian labor market indicator Employment Change decreased (-62.6 thousand) in December 2020 more than expected (-27.5 thousand). Also in December there was a decrease in business activity in the industry. The Ivey Purchasing Managers Index fell to 46.7 from 52.7 in November. There will be no significant economic statistics in Canada this week. The Canadian dollar rate is highly dependent on oil prices, as hydrocarbons takes about a third of Canada's exports. It may decrease in the event of the formation of the 2nd wave of the coronavirus epidemic and a new quarantine.
