USD/CAD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.2774; (P) 1.2834; (R1) 1.2929; More….

Intraday bias in USD/CAD remains neutral as sideway consolidation from 1.2916 might extend further. But after all, with 1.2598 resistance turned support intact, outlook remains bullish and further rally is expected. On the upside, break of 1.2916 will resume the rise from 1.2061 and target 1.3065 medium term fibonacci level next. However, sustained break of 1.2598 will argue that rebound from 1.2061 has completed after hitting 55 week EMA (now at 1.2885). Near term outlook will be turned bearish in this case.

In the bigger picture, USD/CAD should have defended 50% retracement of 0.9406 (2011 low) to 1.4689 (2016 high) at 1.2048. And with 1.2048 intact, we’d favor the case that fall from 1.4689 is a correction. Rise from 1.2061 medium term bottom should now target 38.2% retracement of 1.4689 to 1.2061 at 1.3065. Firm break there will target 1.3793 key resistance next (61.8% retracement at 1.3685). We’ll now hold on to this bullish view as long as 1.2450 support holds.

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3193; (P) 1.3259; (R1) 1.3306; More….

USD/CAD’s decline continues today and reaches as low as 1.3164 so far. The strong break of 1.3222 support as well ass the medium term channel support affirms our bearish view. That is, corrective rise from 1.2460 has already completed at 1.3793. Intraday bias stays on the downside for next key level at 1.2968 (38.2% retracement of 1.2460 to 1.3793 at 1.2969). On the upside, above 1.3245 minor resistance will turn bias neutral and bring consolidations. But upside should be limited by 1.3387 support turned resistance and bring fall resumption.

In the bigger picture, price actions from 1.4689 medium term top are seen as a correction pattern. The first leg has completed at 1.2460. Rise from 1.2460 is seen as the second leg and has completed at 1.3793, ahead of 61.8% retracement of 1.4689 to 1.2460 at 1.3838. Break of 1.3222 should now indicate the start of the third leg while further break of 1.2968 should confirm. In that case, USD/CAD should decline through 1.2460 support to 50% retracement of 0.9406 to 1.4869 at 1.2048.

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3439; (P) 1.3459; (R1) 1.3480; More

USD/CAD is staying in consolidation from 1.3521 temporary top and intraday bias remains neutral. Deeper retreat cannot be ruled out. But downside should be contained by 1.3399 minor support to bring another rally. Prior break of 1.3467 resistance indicates resumption of rise from 1.3068. On the upside, break of 1.3521 will extend the rise to retest 1.3664 high.

In the bigger picture, USD/CAD is staying well inside medium term rising channel (support at 1.3235). Thus, the up trend from 1.2061 (2017 low) should be in progress. On the upside, decisive break of 61.8% retracement of 1.4689 (2016 high) to 1.2061 at 1.3685 will pave the way to 78.6% retracement at 1.4127 next. This will remain the favored case as long as 1.3068 support holds.

USD/CAD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.2552; (P) 1.2585; (R1) 1.2606; More

Intraday bias in USD/CAD remains neutral for the moment. On the upside, break of 1.2617 will resume the rebound from 1.2401 to 1.2899 resistance. On the downside, break of 1.2401 will revive near term bearishness and target 1.2005 low.

In the bigger picture, focus stays on 38.2% retracement of 1.4667 (2020 high) to 1.2005 (2021 low) at 1.3022. Sustained break there should confirm that the down trend from 1.4667 has completed after defending 1.2061 long term cluster support. Further rise would then be seen towards 61.8% retracement at 1.3650. However, rejection by 1.3022 will maintain medium term bearishness. Break of 1.2005 will resume the down trend from 1.4667 and that carries larger bearish implications too.

Intraday bias in USD/CAD is turned neutral with a temporary low formed at 1.3081. Further decline is expected as long as 1.3259 resistance holds. Below 1.3081 will target 1.2994 low first. Break will resume the larger fall from 1.4667. However, break of 1.3259 resistance will extend the consolidation pattern from 1.2994 with another rising leg. Intraday bias will be turned back to the upside for 1.3418 instead.

In the bigger picture, fall from 1.4667 is seen as the third leg of the corrective pattern from 1.4689 (2016 high). Sustained break of 61.8% retracement of 1.2061 to 1.4667 at 1.3056 will target a test on 1.2061 (2017 low). But we’d expect loss of downside momentum as it approaches this key support. On the upside, firm break of 1.3715 resistance will argue that this falling leg has completed and turn focus back to 1.4667/89 resistance zone.

Intraday bias in USD/CAD remains neutral for the moment. Also, as long as 1.3386 resistance holds, further decline is mildly in favor. Below 1.3260 minor support should resume larger decline through 1.3091 low. Nevertheless, on the upside, firm break of 1.3386 will indicate near term reversal and turn outlook bullish for 1.3653 resistance next.

In the bigger picture, price actions from 1.3976 are viewed as a correction to up trend from 1.2005 (2021 low) only. But even so, deeper decline is expected as long as 1.3386 resistance holds. Further fall could be seen to 61.8% retracement of 1.2005 to 1.3976 at 1.2758. Meanwhile, break of 1.3386 will be a sign that the correction has completed and bring stronger rally back to retest 1.3976.

USD/CAD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3750; (P) 1.3780; (R1) 1.3829; More

Intraday bias in USD/CAD remains on the upside for the moment. Current rise from 1.3091 should target a retest on 1.3976 high. Decisive break there will resume larger up trend. On the downside, below 1.3750 minor support will turn intraday bias neutral and bring consolidations. But near term outlook will remain bullish as long as 1.3568 support holds.

In the bigger picture, current development revives the case that corrective pattern from 1.3976 (2022 high) has completed with three waves down to 1.3091. Decisive break of 1.3976 high will confirm resumption of up trend from 1.2005 (2021 low). Next target will be 61.8% projection of 1.2401 to 1.3976 from 1.3091 at 1.4064. This will now remain the favored case as long as 1.3378 support holds.

USD/CAD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.2579; (P) 1.2613; (R1) 1.2633; More

USD/CAD is losing some upside momentum as seen in 4 hour MACD. But further rise is expected as long as 1.2491 support holds. As noted before, fall from 1.2947 has possibly completed with three waves down to 1.2886. Rally from there would target a retest on 1.2894/2947 resistance zone. On the downside, however, break of 1.2491 support will revive near term bearishness and bring retest of 1.2886 low.

In the bigger picture, medium term outlook is neutral for now. The pair drew support from 1.2061 cluster and rebounded. Yet, upside was limited below 38.2% retracement of 1.4667 to 1.2005 at 1.3022. On the upside, firm break of 1.3022 should affirm the case of medium term bullish reversal. However, break of 1.2286 will turn focus back to 1.2005 low again.

USD/CAD Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3305; (P) 1.3331; (R1) 1.3353; More….

USD/CAD’s fall accelerates in early US session and reaches as low as 1.3270 so far. Intraday bias remains on the downside for 1.3263 support. Break there will confirm resumption of whole decline from 1.3534 and target 1.3184 cluster level. (61.8% retracement of 1.2968 to 1.3534 at 1.3184, 100% projection of 1.3534 to 1.3263 from 1.3455 at 1.3814 too). As such decline is seen as a correction, we’d expect strong support from 1.3184 to contain downside and bring rebound. On the upside, above 1.3356 minor resistance will turn intraday bias neutral first. But for now, deeper decline is expected as long as 1.3455 resistance holds.

In the bigger picture, price actions from 1.4689 medium term top are seen as a correction pattern. The first leg has completed at 1.2460. The second leg from 1.2460 is likely still in progress and could target 61.8% retracement of 1.4689 to 1.2460 at 1.3838. We’d look for reversal signal there to start the third leg. However, break of 1.2968 will argue that the third leg has already started and should at least bring a retest of 1.2460 low. Meanwhile, sustained trading above 1.3838 would pave the way to retest 1.4689 high.

USD/CAD Weekly Outlook

USD/CAD dipped to as low as 1.3222 last week but recovered strongly since then. The is no change in the view that price actions from 1.3534 are forming a consolidation pattern. Therefore, rise from 1.2968 and 1.2460 are not completed yet. Further rally would be seen through 1.3598 after consolidation from 1.3534 is confirmed to be finished.

USD/CAD 4 Hours Chart

Strong rebound from 1.3222 and break of 1.3309 suggests that consolidation from 1.3534 is completed. Initial bias is back on the upside this week for 1.3455 resistance first. Break should confirm this case and resume the rise from 1.2968 to 1.3598 next. Break there will confirm resumption of whole rise from 1.2460 to next medium term fibonacci level at 1.3838. On the downside, in case of another fall, we’d expect strong support from 61.8% retracement of 1.2968 to 1.3534 at 1.3184 to contain downside and bring rebound.

In the bigger picture, price actions from 1.4689 medium term top are seen as a correction pattern. The first leg has completed at 1.2460. The second leg from 1.2460 is likely still in progress and could target 61.8% retracement of 1.4689 to 1.2460 at 1.3838. We’d look for reversal signal there to start the third leg. However, break of 1.2968 will argue that the third leg has already started and should at least bring a retest of 1.2460 low. Meanwhile, sustained trading above 1.3838 would pave the way to retest 1.4689 high.

USD/CAD Weekly Chart

In the longer term picture, rise from 0.9056 (2007 low) is viewed as a long term up trend. It’s taking a breath after hitting 1.4689. But such rise expected to resume later to test 1.6196 down the road.

USD/CAD Monthly Chart

USD/CAD Weekly Outlook

USD/CAD stayed in sideway consolidation last week and outlook is unchanged. Initial bias remains neutral this week first. Further rise remains mildly in favor. On the upside, break of 1.2795 will resume the rally from 1.2448 to 1.2963 resistance next. However, break of 1.2634 support will turn bias back to the downside for 1.2448 support instead.

In the bigger picture, focus stays on 38.2% retracement of 1.4667 (2020 high) to 1.2005 (2021 low) at 1.3022. Sustained break there should confirm that the down trend from 1.4667 has completed after defending 1.2061 long term cluster support. Further rise would then be seen towards 61.8% retracement at 1.3650. However, rejection by 1.3022 will maintain medium term bearishness. Break of 1.2005 will resume the down trend from 1.4667 and that carries larger bearish implications too.

In the longer term picture, we’re viewing price actions from 1.4689 as a consolidation pattern. Thus, up trend from 0.9506 (2007 low) is still expected to resume at a later stage. This will remain the favored case as long as 1.2061 support holds, which is close to 50% retracement of 0.9406 to 1.4689 at 1.2048. However, firm break of 1.2061 support will argue that USD/CAD has already started a long term down trend. Next target is 61.8% retracement of 0.9406 to 1.4689 at 1.1424.

USD/CAD Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3262; (P) 1.3298; (R1) 1.3347; More

Breach of 1.3345 resistance suggests resumption of rise from 1.3016. Intraday bias is back on the upside for 1.3564/3664 resistance zone. On the downside, break of 1.3247 support is needed to indicate short term topping. Otherwise, near term outlook will remain cautiously bullish in case of retreat. Through, firm break of 1.3247 will turn bias back to the downside for 1.3016 instead.

In the bigger picture, key cluster support of 1.3068 (38.2% retracement of 1.2061 to 1.3664 at 1.3052) remains intact. Medium term rise from 1.2061 low is in favor to resume sooner or later. Firm break of 61.8% retracement of 1.4689 (2016 high) to 1.2061 at 1.3685 will confirm and target 1.4689 high. However, sustained break of 1.3052/68 will confirm completion of up trend from 1.2061 (2017 low). Further fall should be seen to 61.8% retracement at 1.2673 next.

Intraday bias in USD/CAD remains neutral first, and further rally is in favor with 1.2971 minor support intact. On the upside, decisive break of 1.3222 will resume larger up trend from 1.2005. Next target is 100% projection of 1.2005 to 1.2947 from 1.2401 at 1.3343. On the downside, however, break of 1.2971 will extend the corrective pattern from 1.3222 with another falling leg, back towards 1.2726 support instead.

In the bigger picture, down trend from 1.4667 (2020 high) should have completed at 1.2005, after defending 1.2061 long term cluster support. Rise from there should target 61.8% retracement of 1.4667 to 1.2005 (2021 low) at 1.3650. This will remain the favored case now as long as 1.2516 support holds.
