Multi-Year Bottoming Watch =**Week of:** April 7–11, 2025 **Bias:** Bullish Rotation Setup **Trade Duration:** Multi-week to multi-month swing **Status:** Compression Zone Reclaim | Macro Spring Forming **Reflexivity Phase:** Phase 2 – Structural Reversal Attempt --- ## 🧠 Thesis Canadian Dollar Futures (6C1!) are emerging from a multi-year downtrend channel with signs of base compression and reclaim. This may represent the early stages of a **macro spring** setup — the kind that forms silently while sentiment is bottomed out. We are now in a zone where smart money often rotates before the crowd reacts. --- ## 🔍 Structure Overview - Decade-long downtrend channel — structure well defined - Price has reclaimed key breakdown levels - Early higher lows forming inside compression zone - Base forming after major sentiment washout - No parabolic rallies = controlled accumulation --- ## 📊 COT + Sentiment Snapshot - **Commercials:** Gradually increasing net long CAD positions - **Leveraged Funds:** Still net short — potential fuel for reversal - **Narrative:** CAD broadly dismissed due to oil & USD dominance - **Retail:** No attention = stealth phase --- ## 🔄 Reflexivity Phase Model | Phase | Description | |-------|-------------| | **Phase 1:** CAD declines for years, sentiment deeply bearish | **Phase 2:** Structure stabilizes, price reclaims compression zone (now) | **Phase 3:** Sentiment catches up, breakout attempt begins | **Phase 4:** Violent revaluation as positioning flips ✅ **Current Phase:** Phase 2 – Smart money accumulating, crowd unaware --- ## 🎯 Strategy Guidance - Favor long bias while above reclaimed levels - Ideal entry zone: Retest of reclaimed base - Invalidation: Re-entry below channel support - Target: Multi-month upside if breakout holds --- > “The broader the base, the bigger the move. CAD may be waking up from a multi year sleep.”

Is it Time for Commodity Currencies to Shine?As Trump announced tariffs on Canada and Mexico, which was bullish the USD, the CAD closed the day green as Commercial traders are net-long while Speculators are increasing their short position. Will fading this crowded trade (not max crowded yet) end up being one of the better trades during the first quarter of 2025? This is also not the only currency set up that way. Other commodity currencies include the AUD and NZD. These three currencies are where Speculators are most short. Now we wait for the market to confirm the long trade with a news failure. For new followers, the CMR process is to wait for Speculators (both small and large) to become extremely crowded and then fade their trade after a news failure in the market confirms the trade. You want to be on the same side as Commercials when the market turns. Thanks, Jason

The Market Code: Decoding Opportunity in the Canadian Dollar**The Market Code: Decoding Opportunity in the Canadian Dollar** There is a moment when the veil is lifted, and the truth becomes clear—when the illusion of chaos resolves into perfect order. This week, I have read the code written within the Commitment of Traders (COT) data, and it reveals a symphony of opportunity, waiting for those who are ready to listen. The markets are alive with setups—Currencies, Energies, Metals, Grains, Treasuries—all pulsing with hidden potential. But let me be clear: not all secrets are free. I will offer you only a taste, a glimpse of what lies beneath the surface. The rest? That’s reserved for those who dare to journey deeper into the rabbit hole. Among the revelations, one stands above the rest: **The Canadian Dollar is primed for longs**. But do not mistake this for a call to rush blindly into the market. This is the *setup*, not the signal. To act with precision, you must wait for the *trigger*. This distinction is critical, yet misunderstood by most. The Codes Decoded -Commercial Positioning: The commercials—those who understand the market better than anyone—are close to holding their longest positions in three years. The last time they were this long was in August, just before a sharp bullish move. Coincidence? Hardly. This is the first code of the Canadian Dollar setup. -Open Interest Surge: During the recent multi-week price decline, Open Interest has spiked. Ask yourself: *Who is driving this increase?* The data reveals it’s the commercials, increasing their longs. This is not noise—it’s a signal. -Bearish Sentiment Extreme: Investment advisors are at a relative extreme in bearishness. Contrarians thrive on such moments, as extremes are where the most compelling opportunities are born. -Valuation Insight: The Canadian Dollar is undervalued relative to U.S. Treasuries. When valuation and positioning align, the market is speaking in a language few understand. -Seasonal Trends: The true seasonal trend supports a long, pointing to upward movement into January. History doesn’t repeat, but it rhymes. -Small Speculator Shorts: Small speculators are heavily short—an extreme in their positioning over the last 26 weeks. This is yet another clue in the unfolding narrative. -Technical Support: %R is signaling a buy zone, and the weekly stochastic is oversold. The technicals align with the fundamentals—yet another piece of the puzzle. The Question What will you do with this knowledge? Will you watch from the sidelines, content to let the markets continue to elude you? Or will you take the red pill, embrace the truth, and step into a new understanding of how the markets truly operate? The Invitation I’m not here to sell you illusions or half-truths. I’m here to show you how to *see*. The Commitment of Traders strategy isn’t a system—it’s a lens that reveals the market’s music, the hidden rhythm that guides price action. If you’re ready to go beyond the surface, to see the *why* behind the *what*, reach out. I’ll teach you how to decode these markets for yourself. The rabbit hole goes deep, but I will guide you. The choice is yours: stay in the comfort of ignorance, or step into the unknown and discover what lies beyond. Are you ready to see how deep the rabbit hole goes?

Red Pill of Trading: A Glimpse into Hidden Market SetupsIn the depths of the market matrix, few can see beyond surface price action. The Commitment of Traders data is a revelation, a signal that speaks to those ready to see the true forces at work. This strategy has uncovered potent setups across currencies, energies, grains, and metals—all primed for major moves. But I cannot offer this knowledge freely. Information that comes cheap is rarely valued. True insight, like the red pill, demands a commitment. A choice to see beyond the veil. Today, I offer you just a glimpse—one of many market truths revealed by this strategy. The Canadian Dollar. The CAD is positioned for longs. But let me be clear: we don’t blindly long this market. Instead, we wait, watching for a confirmed entry trigger on the daily timeframe. Yet everything points towards a powerful move. Commercials are positioned extremely long relative to the last 26 weeks, and approaching levels we last saw in August—right before CAD surged. Open interest has been increasing, and when OI increases, we ask ourselves: "Who is causing this open interest increase?". In this case, it is increasing while the Commercials are getting very long, which is bullish. Last week, investment advisor sentiment hit a bearish extreme, a contrarian signal that lingers now into this week. CAD is undervalued against both gold and treasuries—another indication of buy potential. Two weeks ago, we saw ADX drop below 20, while commercials heavily increased their longs, creating a bullish divergence that grows with each new indicator. Supplementary indicators stand by this setup: Insider Accumulation, Stochastics, %R, even a bullish momentum divergence is setting up, though it’s not yet confirmed. And this is just the beginning. If you want to uncover the full array of setups across markets this week and next, to see the real truth behind the moves, then take the red pill. Reach out. This is an opportunity, a privilege to step beyond mere price action and learn the market’s deepest secrets. Inquire with me, and together, we’ll peel back the layers of the matrix. The choice is yours.

Possible Canadian Dollar StrengthI’m monitoring for Canadian Dollar strength in the near to mid-term. Based on my data, the risk-to-reward ratio appears very favorable. I plan to start building a short position on the USDCAD pair if it rises above 1.40, only initiating the trade once this threshold is reached. If it doesn’t, I will refrain from entering. Given the strong current momentum, it’s possible the pair could move significantly higher, so I’ll begin with a small initial position. I scale into and out of my trades gradually, taking multiple smaller positions along the way.

COT Red Pill: Canadian Dollar Primed for a Long The Red Pill of Trading: Illuminating the Canadian Dollar's Long Potential In the vast and enigmatic expanse of the financial matrix, truths often lay hidden, obscured by layers of complexity and uncertainty. Today, I offer you an opportunity—an invitation to take the red pill and awaken to the profound insights that the market has to reveal. We turn our gaze to the Canadian Dollar (CAD), a currency poised for potential transformation, waiting for the discerning trader to recognize its worth. The Commercials Let us begin with the Commitment of Traders (COT) data, a powerful tool that unveils the positioning of the market's key players. The commercials—those seasoned entities whose knowledge and resources run deep—are currently positioned significantly long. Their holdings approach levels last seen in August 2024, a time of significance with extreme long positioning that heralded a remarkable four-week upswing in prices. This is no mere coincidence; it is a bullish signal, a whisper from the market that should not be ignored. However, wisdom demands patience. To embark on this journey, we must first wait for a confirmed trend change entry trigger on the daily timeframe. The fundamentals are ripe for a rally, yet we must ensure our actions are grounded in calculated strategy rather than impulsive enthusiasm. Open Interest: A Window into Market Dynamics As we delve deeper into the market's secrets, we uncover the insights offered by open interest analysis. During the recent multi-week downtrend, we have witnessed a spike in open interest—a phenomenon that warrants our attention. Here, we must pose a critical question: who is driving this increase? in this case it is the commercials, accumulating long positions and enhancing their stake, we find ourselves looking at a robust bullish indicator. The increase in open interest driven by those with intimate market knowledge signifies a potential shift in the market’s direction. This insight is a crucial key to unlocking the doors of opportunity. The Contrarian’s Edge But the revelations do not end there. Investment advisor sentiment has plummeted to bearish extremes, a classic contrarian signal that savvy traders know to watch. As the masses succumb to pessimism, history has shown us time and again that opportunity often lies in the shadows of despair. The WillVal indicator further illuminates our path, revealing that the Canadian Dollar is currently undervalued compared to Gold and Treasuries. This mispricing signals an impending revaluation—a chance for the discerning trader to seize the moment. Seasonal trends indicate that we should anticipate price movements upward as we approach January, and the positioning of small speculators(the usually wrong public)—excessively short—presents yet another contrarian opportunity, one that the wise trader can capitalize on. The Choice Before You You now stand at a significant juncture, a crossroads where knowledge and opportunity intersect. The insights I have shared are akin to taking the red pill—a revelation that exposes the true nature of the market, laying bare the possibilities that await those willing to see. As you contemplate your next move, remember that successful trading is not about surrendering to the whims of the crowd but about embracing the hidden truths that lie beneath the surface. Join me on this journey into the unknown. Follow Tradius Trades, where we dissect the intricate patterns of the market and equip you with the insights necessary to navigate this complex landscape. The truth is out there, and together, we can unveil the secrets of trading with clarity and conviction. Choose wisely, for the matrix of opportunity awaits your command.

High Timeframe Analysis for Canadian DollarDISCLAIMER: This is not trading advice. This is for educational and entertainment purposes only. There are significant risks involved with trading. Do your due diligence. MULTI-TIMEFRAME STRATEGY. This approach is great for traders that don't have a lot of time to spend at the charts. This strategy can easily be managed with a few minutes a night. If you have kids, or are busy with another profession, this strategy is excellent. HTF: 12 Month ITF: 2 Week ETF: 12 Hour CANADIAN DOLLAR ANALYSIS: I am looking for the Canadian Dollar to trade up to 2023 highs. My bias is due to the "swing low" we put in over the last few years, suggesting that overall there is some bullish momentum. The intermediate timeframe is in flow with my htf objective. I want to see CAD trade down into the 2W fair value gap &/or 2 week orderblock, and then give an entry (cisd, 18 period ma entry, 10-8 mac entry). The target is 2023 highs. These trades can last a fairly long time due to the high timeframe objective. I will either roll over into next contract, or utilize spot forex market for these positions. To be clear, this does not mean I blindly long. What this means is this market has a setup, which means we wait for the trigger/timing tool to get me in. Until then, I do nothing. If you want to learn more about the PD (Premium/Discount) arrays, I suggest you study ICT (Inner Circle Trader). My application of his work is unique, but to learn the fundamentals, there is no better place than his YouTube. If you have questions, feel free to shoot me a message. Have a great week.

Canadian Dollar Futures Trading Plan and ExplanationAfter analyzing options trades on CME, we found a promising opportunity to short Canadian Dollar. The option contract is for April with an expiration date of April 5, 2024. We noticed an interesting option portfolio on March 22 that aligns with the trigger level on the futures chart (refer to chart). A trigger level is a graphical pattern on the underlying asset that prompts traders to take or avoid specific trading actions. For the Canadian futures chart, the trigger level is the price breakdown of the local resistance at 0.7403-0.07406. Opening long positions at the breakdown point was encouraged by the bullish shape and intensity of the candlestick with minimal shadows. This level was attractive for making purchases for both chartists and adepts of candlestick analysis. The study of options trading has revealed that these levels are useful for opening counter positions when the price reaches them. To execute this strategy, smart traders use naked options in advance, specifically PUT options with a strike of 0.74. By utilizing the leverage effect of options, traders can create substantial short positions on futures contracts while maintaining a risk-free position for a limited time. IMPORTANT! We do not expect the price to move towards the strike level. Instead, we recommend using the obtained exchange data and analyzing it to gain an edge when opening a trade, providing a better starting point and improving the risk/reward ratio.

Potential Reversal in the Canadian Dollar: Analyzing Supply and Overview: In recent trading sessions, the Canadian Dollar (CAD) has displayed weakness, particularly since encountering weekly supply levels. However, there are indications that the CAD might be poised for a turnaround, especially as it approaches a daily demand zone. Analyzing the charts, we observe a potential opportunity for CAD strength, with key technical factors hinting at a shift in momentum. Technical Analysis: Weekly Supply Impact: The CAD has experienced a period of weakness following its interaction with weekly supply levels. This suggests significant selling pressure in the market, impacting the currency's performance. Daily Demand Zone: Presently, the CAD is situated within a daily demand zone, which often serves as a crucial area for potential reversals. Traders typically monitor such zones closely for signs of price action indicating a shift in sentiment. H4 CHoCH Signal: On the H4 timeframe, We have a change of character (CHoCH) is signaling a potential turnaround. This indicator can provide insights into buying or selling pressure within the market, potentially indicating a shift in momentum favoring the CAD. Target Levels: If the CAD manages to find support within the daily demand zone and the CHoCH signal confirms bullish momentum, we could anticipate a retracement back towards the 0.7400 levels. Longer-Term Outlook: A break of the prevailing downtrend line, coupled with the removal of opposite supply, could pave the way for a sustained upward movement in the CAD. Such a scenario could signal a longer-term shift in market sentiment towards CAD strength. Conclusion: While the Canadian Dollar has encountered resistance at weekly supply levels, the presence of a daily demand zone and favorable technical indicators suggest the potential for a reversal in CAD fortunes. Traders should closely monitor price action, particularly around the identified support levels and the CHoCH signal, for confirmation of bullish momentum. A break of the downtrend line could mark the beginning of a longer-term upward trajectory for the CAD, offering trading opportunities for those positioned accordingly. However, traders should remain vigilant and adapt their strategies in response to evolving market conditions.
