USDCAD Eyes on BoC Interest Rate Decision

On Friday, the Bank of Canada reported a contraction in employment data. However, it was positive that the unemployment rate remained unchanged at 6.6% from the previous month, and the average hourly wages for February were higher than the previous month. Overall, the Canadian economy is performing well.

Despite this, USDCAD is expected to advance further in the coming days. On Wednesday, March 12, the BoC will announce its interest rate decision. The market anticipates a rate cut of 25 basis points, bringing the rate down to 2.75% from the current 3%2.

This expectation is causing CAD weakness ahead of the news. The price may test our target areas soon.
If this does not happen by Wednesday, trading could become riskier.
