Canada CPI to be released soon, USD/CAD currency pair trend

88
🔆The USD/CAD currency pair is being influenced by important economic and political developments.

🔆US President Donald Trump has announced that he is considering imposing a 25% tariff on goods imported from Canada and Mexico. But instead of taking effect immediately, the policy could take effect in February. The announcement immediately sent the USD sharply lower, giving CAD a breather.

🔆Canada’s December CPI inflation data will be released today. If inflation rises higher than expected, this could support the CAD and affect the trend of the USD/CAD pair.

🔆Technical Analysis:

The USD/CAD pair is currently trading around 1.444. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains in favor of the bulls. The pair is likely to test the 200-EMA at 1.440 before continuing to bounce towards the 1.45 area. In the near future, the market is waiting for Canada's CPI information for further assessment. Moreover, the US tariff policy will strongly affect the trend of this currency pair in the coming time.

🔆Advice:

Investors should closely monitor economic and political information, especially decisions related to tariffs and inflation data, to have a suitable trading strategy for the USD/CAD pair.
