USDCAD trade ideas
USD/CAD Testing Trendline Support Before Continuing BullishOn the USD/CAD 5D time frame chart, the price is currently experiencing a significant decline after reaching the resistance area around 1.46721. This pullback remains within the context of a long-term uptrend, as indicated by the ascending trendline, which has repeatedly acted as support since 2021.
The primary scenario in this analysis suggests that the price could retest the support area around the ascending trendline and the previous breakout zone (blue area), located in the 1.38 - 1.39 range. If the price finds strong support in this area and shows signs of reversal, a buy opportunity can be considered, with an upside target back to the 1.46721 resistance level.
In this analysis process, several confirmations should be observed before making an entry decision:
Price Reaction at Trendline Support – If the price shows a strong bounce at this level, the bullish scenario remains valid.
Reversal Candlestick Confirmation – Patterns like bullish engulfing or pin bars can serve as reliable entry signals.
On the other hand, if the price breaks below the trendline significantly, this bullish scenario may become invalid, and USD/CAD could enter a deeper correction phase. Therefore, risk management is crucial, with an ideal stop loss placed below the trendline support.
USDCAD – looking for value to go short .. the week of 17 FebAs per my analysis, we are seeing a weak USD across all major and minor currency pairs on the weekly and daily time frames. Which pair to trade will probably become clearer on Mon, but for now I am looking at USDCAD.
Yes, that huge spike up gap is confusing, but that gap was quickly filled. If I just ignore that gap, the picture becomes clearer; now I find that the price action this entire year was in a range between 1.4468 and 1.4280. This range narrowed considerably to the lower part of the range (see the yellow box) and this led to my bearish bias. On Thu last week, price actually broke down (below the range). It could attempt a pull back to the area I have marked in green. This area is significant, it has acted as support multiple times. I also see that the bearish candles have started becoming larger and I feel that the bears are taking control of this market. If price does pullback to my zone, we could have a good trade location.
Given the scenario I described, I would take a short position, with stop around 1.4350 and initial target at the support near 1.4180. If the downtrend continues with momentum, I will consider extending my trade to a secondary target near 1.3950.
This is not a trade recommendation, merely my own analysis. Trading carries a high level of risk, so only trade with money you can afford to lose and carefully manage your capital and risk.

USDCAD 2/17 - 2/21Looking towards the left side on the daily timeframe we can see that price has bounced off of a major level of resistance. Zooming into the smaller timeframe on the right side (hour) we can see that price has started to slow down/forming bullish divergence. Could possibly be a nice catch towards the upside.
Weekly USDCAD Short - Wyckoff Upthrust & a triple topAfter the second week closed below the highest bar that poked the previous high we have a strong confirmation to short this Upthrust to the downside. The Poke bar on its own is a sizable one. Our final target is the downside of this range. We also have a Triple Top bearing. On the monthly chart, we are coming from a big downtrend although, on the weekly chart, we can say this is a countertrend trade - we bet that we are in a range at the moment.
Giving and option for take profit target and a final one.
That will be a fairly long trade if it works out properly.

USDCAD INTRADAY loss of important supportThe USDCAD currency pair intraday sentiment appears bearish, supported by the confirmed loss of support of the longer-term sideways consolidation trading range. However, since the spike caused by the possible tariff announcement on 03rd February 2024, the USDCAD price action is displaying signs of bearish behaviour. The increase in optimism over the Russia and Ukraine truce triggers the price action. The USD currency remains strong based on the expectation that the Fed will hold interest rates at the current levels for longer. On the other hand, the market expectation for BoC is to continue gradually reducing the interest rates further.
The key trading level is at 1.4260. An oversold rally from the current level and a bearish rejection at 1.4260 level could target additional downside support at 1.4150 followed by the 1. 4100 and 1.4025 levels over the longer timeframe.
Alternatively, an oversold rally from the current levels and a confirmed breakout above 1.4260 resistance and a daily close above that level would negate the bearish outlook opening the way for a further rally and a retest of 1.4300 resistance followed by 1.4350 and 1.4400 levels.

USD/CAD Retest Nearing Completion, Strong Bullish Wave Incoming USD/CAD is trading at approximately 1.4170.Our target price of 1.8000 suggests an anticipated upward movement of over 38,000 pips, indicating a highly bullish outlook. You note that the pair is completing a retesting period, potentially leading to a strong bullish wave.
Technical analysis indicates that USD/CAD has been consolidating around recent highs, with the market awaiting key economic data to determine its next direction. A significant support level to monitor is 1.3950; a break below this level could shift the bias from bullish to bearish. Conversely, maintaining support above this level may reinforce the bullish scenario.
Fundamentally, the Canadian dollar has recently strengthened, reaching a two-month high against the U.S. dollar. This appreciation was driven by a decrease in U.S. bond yields and positive Canadian labor market data, including a drop in the unemployment rate to 6.6% and the addition of 76,000 new jobs in January 2025. These factors have eased concerns about an economic slowdown in Canada.
In summary, while the USD/CAD pair is currently exhibiting consolidation, the completion of the retesting period could lead to a strong bullish wave toward your target price. Traders should closely monitor key support levels and upcoming economic data releases to make informed decisions.
