Macro Technical Analysis of the USD/CAD – Quarterly ChartLet’s take a look at the USD/CAD quarterly (3-Month) chart.
Things are looking quite bearish for the coming months as price begins to get squeezed inside the ascending triangle.
The bulls have tried multiple times breaking and clearing the 1.4500 price zone but has been met with a strong resistance each time. Considering that the MACD and RSI are diverging to the downside along with this triple resistance, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see the USD/CAD trading lower towards 1.3000 in the coming quarters.
Considering this is a long term outlook, price can still fluctuate between 1.3500 and 1.4000ish but based on the current set-up, as of now, the view remains bearish especially with the U.S. Dollar under pressure across the board.
A clear break & close above 1.4500 invalidates this view.
Good Luck & Trade Safe

USDCAD Consolidation Within Bullish Flag – Targets 1.4130USDCAD is consolidating inside a descending flag structure following a strong impulsive rally earlier in May. The current pullback is orderly and corrective, indicating potential for continuation higher. If price breaks above 1.3960, this flag breakout could extend toward 1.4130 and possibly 1.4225. With CAD weakening on soft oil prices and USD regaining strength from yield-driven flows, the bias remains bullish while price stays above 1.3870.
🔍 Technical Analysis
Pattern: Bullish flag forming after a strong rally
Support Zone: 1.3870–1.3900 → base of flag
Resistance/Breakout Zone: 1.3960–1.3980 → upper flag line
Structure:
Higher lows holding firm
Fib confluence near 1.3933 (23.6% retracement)
Target Levels:
1.4130 – 50% fib level + previous structure resistance
1.4225 – 61.8% fib zone from March–April high
📈 Bias: Bullish continuation on breakout
🌍 Fundamental Context
🇺🇸 U.S. Dollar (USD)
Supported by:
Higher bond yields
Fed expected to hold rates higher for longer
Safe-haven inflows post-Moody’s downgrade fading
USD Index recovering broadly across majors
🇨🇦 Canadian Dollar (CAD)
Oil prices softening due to global demand concerns (China slowdown, US inventories)
BoC likely done hiking — no fresh bullish catalysts
CAD correlation with crude oil adds downside risk if energy markets weaken further
🎯 Trade Plan
Entry: Break and close above 1.3960
Stop Loss: Below 1.3870 (flag support zone)
Targets:
TP1: 1.4130 (structure resistance + fib level)
TP2: 1.4225 (swing high + golden ratio)
⚠️ Risk Factors to Watch
If USD sentiment shifts (e.g., dovish Fed speaker) → breakout may fail
Crude oil rebound would support CAD and cap USD/CAD upside
False breakouts common near 1.3960 — wait for confirmation (strong candle close)
🧭 Conclusion
USD/CAD remains in a bullish consolidation phase with a clear continuation setup. A break above 1.3960 would confirm a flag breakout targeting 1.4130 and 1.4225. With the macro backdrop favoring the USD and energy-linked CAD weakening, this setup offers clean structure and potential for follow-through.

USD/CAD Market ObservationThe USD/CAD exchange rate extended its decline, hitting an intraday low of 1.3673 and a new year-to-date low. The US Dollar Index weakened across the board under multiple bearish factors, while the Canadian Dollar remained strong supported by robust economic data. USD/CAD has fully broken below a key support zone, accelerating its downward trend after breaching the 1.3800 level. Current market sentiment is clearly bearish on the US Dollar. Uncertainties surrounding tariff policies and the strengthening expectation of Federal Reserve rate cuts have left the US Dollar lacking upward momentum. Meanwhile, strong Canadian economic data and expectations that the Bank of Canada will maintain a hawkish stance have provided solid support for the Canadian Dollar. Traders generally believe that with the obvious divergence in fundamentals, USD/CAD still has further downside potential.
Humans need to breathe, and perfect trading is like breathing—maintaining flexibility without needing to trade every market swing. The secret to profitable trading lies in implementing simple rules: repeating simple tasks consistently and enforcing them strictly over the long term.

USDCAD BULLISH OR BEARISH DETAILED ANALYSIS ??USDCAD continues to follow the predicted bearish path, currently trading around 1.38300, and still moving gradually toward our target zone of 1.34300. After a strong bearish impulse from the 1.40391 supply zone, price has consistently formed lower highs, confirming selling pressure and market intent. The recent bounce was shallow, and price is respecting previous resistance levels perfectly, validating the bearish continuation setup.
Fundamentally, the Canadian dollar is gaining strength off rising oil prices and improving economic data from Canada, while the US dollar remains under pressure as the market begins pricing in a potential Fed rate cut in the second half of 2025. With softer US economic indicators including lower consumer confidence and slowing GDP growth, the momentum clearly favors CAD in this pair. The divergence in monetary policy outlooks between the Bank of Canada and the Federal Reserve adds further downside bias to USDCAD.
Technically, the structure remains bearish, with a clean breakdown below the 1.3900 psychological level and clear rejection at the 1.40300 resistance zone. Market liquidity appears to be shifting below the current price, and with the pair printing consistent lower highs and lower lows, there's significant space toward our target zone near 1.34128. A rejection from the minor pullback zone between 1.38800–1.39000 could provide another entry opportunity for trend continuation traders.
USDCAD remains a high-probability short setup in line with both technical structure and current fundamentals. As long as price stays below the 1.40300 resistance, I expect the bearish trend to continue with increased momentum as we approach summer liquidity shifts. This trade is already deep in profit and aligns with key institutional selling zones, making 1.34300 a realistic and conservative target in the coming weeks.
USDCAD -- Wait to see which way...Hello,
The weekly for the USDCAD is showing a potential bounce from around 1.37805. However, price is below 200 MA for D, 4HR & 1HR; Weekly and Monthly are still strong bullish for 200 MA.
I would like to see a hammer followed by a bullish engulfing candle as in past weeks - that would put me in a buy position targeting ~1.43566.
Price currently is trying to bust out of resistance set from Oct of 2022.
For the short game, price is almost touching the Hourly 200 MA.
As always, we'll wait and see and go with the flow!

USD/CADThe pair has been in a clear downtrend, forming a bottom around the 1.3665 area, followed by a noticeable bullish rebound with consecutive bullish candles.
Key Support Zone:
1.3665 – Represents the recent bottom and a significant reversal point.
Upcoming Resistance Levels:
1.3818: A horizontal resistance that has been tested multiple times and is close to the current price.
1.3860 – 1.3880: A strong resistance zone, marking a previous reversal point.
1.3920 – 1.3950: The next resistance zone after a breakout, corresponding to a prior lower high.
Bullish Scenario (currently more likely):
If the upward momentum continues, price may reach the 1.3860 zone and potentially break above it toward 1.3920, provided it stabilizes above 1.3818.
Bearish Scenario (if the rally fails):
If the price forms a reversal candle near 1.3818 and fails to break through, a pullback may occur toward 1.3730, and possibly retest 1.3665.
Hourly bearish retraceFibonacci tool pegged to a high and low where the retrace levels have confluence with previous swing support and resistances.
