USDCAD - Hunting for Bullish Entries?The USD/CAD pair has experienced a notable correction from the 1.4400 resistance level, with price currently being at the 1.4215 area. If a correction happens like the one highlighted by the arrows, traders may find an attractive buying opportunity on smaller timeframes, aligning with the larger bullish trend that's been in place since February. The recent pullback could provide an ideal entry for those looking to capitalize on the prevailing uptrend, targeting a potential move back toward the orange horizontal resistance at 1.4400. However, caution is warranted – should price sharply break below the blue support box with conviction, the bullish thesis would be invalidated, suggesting instead a strategy of selling any minor retracements as the pair could then accelerate to the downside. This critical juncture demands close monitoring of price action for confirmation of either scenario in the coming sessions.

Canadian dollar slides as Canada's job growth declinesThe Canadian dollar has stabilized on Monday after declining close to 1% on Friday. In the North American session, USD/CAD is trading at 1.4225, up 0.23% on the day. It has been a roller-coaster for the Canadian dollar, which jumped 1.1% on Thursday but gave up almost all of the gains a day later. Canada's economy shed 32.6 thousand jobs in March, the biggest decline since August 2022. This was a sharp reversal from the 1.1 thousand gain in February and much lower than the market estimate of 12 thousand. The unemployment rate rose to 6.7% from 6.6% and the participation rate ticked lower to 65.2% from 65.3%. The employment data points to weakness in the labor market and the economic chill from the latest US tariffs could lead to further deterioration of the employment landscape. Businesses are holding back on investment and hiring due to the economic uncertainty and the plunge in oil prices will hurt the economy, as Canada is a major oil producer. US nonfarm payrolls surprised on the upside with a gain of 228 thousand, up from a revised 117 thousand in February and above the market estimate of 135 thousand. This was the strongest nonfarm payroll reading in three months. The positive employment report was overshadowed by the latest round of US tariffs which have sent the financial markets tumbling lower. There are increasing fears that the US tariffs and expected counter-tariffs could upend the US economy and tip it into a recession. Investors are hoping that the Trump administration will reduce the tariffs or at least announce negotiations will take place with targeted countries. So far, however, Trump has sounded defiant and said that the tariffs will stay in place.

USD/CAD – Breakdown Retest Offering Strategic Short OpportunityWeek of: April 7–11, 2025 Bias: Bearish Trade Duration: 2–5 Days Status: Breakdown Confirmed – Retesting from Below Current Reflexivity Phase: Phase 3 – Crowd Denial / Re-Entry Trap Strategy Type: Structural Breakdown + Sentiment Dislocation Execution Style: Reactive, not predictive 🧠 Strategic Thesis USD/CAD has broken decisively below its prior 2-week base and is now retesting that structure from below. The pair is showing textbook behavior of distribution > breakdown > retest—a setup that often leads to emotional unwinds when conviction collapses. Though USD sentiment remains firm, the structure disagrees—and price is leading positioning. 🔍 Structure Breakdown Highlights Clear break beneath consolidation range Retest is unfolding in low-momentum fashion (no bullish drive) Lower highs persist on multiple timeframes No fresh demand seen on the retest so far Ideal short continuation trigger if rejection holds 📊 COT & Sentiment Snapshot Leveraged Funds: Still long USD/CAD, but have begun reducing size Commercials: Gradual CAD accumulation underway Open Interest: Rises on down moves, fades on up moves — shows weak demand conviction Retail Sentiment: Still bullish on USD, ignoring structural breakdown Institutional Bias: Quiet rotation toward CAD strength 📌 Translation: Belief in USD remains, but smart money is already moving. This dislocation is your edge. 🧠 Behavioral Finance Triggers “Crowds trust the story. Price tells the truth.” Anchoring to old bullish setups Late buyers still entering on dips Retest becomes a re-entry trap for overconfident longs If rejection confirms, emotional exits fuel momentum 🔄 Reflexivity Model – Phase Breakdown Phase Description Phase 1: USD/CAD long crowd builds on USD strength narrative Phase 2: Structure breaks below key base – already completed Phase 3: Now Active – Crowd in denial, price retesting from below Phase 4: Flush and capitulation if retest fails, triggering stop cascades ✅ Current Phase: 3 – Re-Entry Trap / Denial Before Exit 🛠️ Execution Plan Entry: Wait for clean rejection candle or lower-high after retest Risk Management: Invalidate if structure is reclaimed and price sustains above the broken zone Exit Plan: Scale out as price moves into areas of prior demand or volume voids Trade Style: Tactical, reactive — confirm behavior before acting Expected Duration: 2–5 trading days if follow-through holds 🕰️ Execution Timeline Monday: Monitor the retest — don’t rush entry Tuesday–Wednesday: Best window for rejection and short setup Thursday–Friday: Manage open exposure, secure gains or trail ✅ Strategic Summary This is not a top call — the top is already in Structure has changed, but belief lags The crowd is doubling down — structure is calling their bluff Let rejection confirm, then lean into the unwind “You don’t need to predict. Just follow the failure.”

USD/CAD Trend in Today's European and American Trading Sessions✍ ✍ ✍ USD/CAD news: ➡️ The USD/CAD pair continued its downtrend for the fourth consecutive day as selling pressure on the US dollar remained dominant. ➡️ Concerns that Trump's tariffs could lead to a US recession, prompting the Fed to cut interest rates, weighed on the greenback. ➡️ Meanwhile, overnight declines in crude oil prices weakened the Canadian dollar, providing some support to the pair. ➡️ Additionally, traders appeared hesitant to take fresh positions ahead of upcoming jobs reports from both the US and Canada. Personal opinion: ➡️ The USD/CAD pair is showing signs of a bullish recovery after entering oversold territory. This bodes well for the pair. ➡️ In the long run, the trade war impact will lead to more risks for currencies like CAD. So this is still an advantage for the USD ➡️ Analysis based on important physical dimensions - support and Fibonacci combined with EMA and trend to come up with a suitable strategy Plan: 🔆Setting up the price zone: 👉Buy USD/CAD 1.4110– 1.4100 ❌SL: 1.3970 | ✅TP: 1.4160 – 1.4200 FM wishes you a successful trading day 💰💰💰
