USDCADShort Fundamental Analysis – USD/CAD 1. Context • Bank of Canada (BoC) • Maintains relatively high interest rates to manage inflation, though at a more moderate pace compared to the Fed. • The Canadian economy is highly sensitive to oil prices, given the significant role of energy exports. • Federal Reserve (Fed) • Holds an elevated rate policy backed by strong US economic indicators (GDP ~+2.6%, unemployment ~3.7%). • The resulting interest rate differential often lends support to the US dollar over the Canadian dollar. 2. Possible Direction • Bias: Slightly bullish on USD/CAD, particularly if US data remains solid and/or oil prices soften, reducing CAD’s support. • Alternate Scenario: • If oil prices rise sharply or if Canadian economic data (e.g., GDP, inflation, jobs) significantly outperform expectations, CAD could gain, pressuring USD/CAD lower. • A dovish pivot by the Fed might also see the USD weaken against CAD. 3. Factors to Watch This Week 1. Oil Prices • A key driver for CAD. If oil rallies, it tends to support the Canadian dollar; if it falls, USD/CAD may climb. 2. Canadian Economic Indicators • BoC’s policy updates, along with GDP and CPI releases, can shift sentiment around CAD. 3. US Economic Data & Fed Rhetoric • Continued strong US data typically boosts USD/CAD, while any indication of a Fed pause or slowdown could weaken the dollar. 4. Overall Conclusion • CAD benefits from firmer oil prices and steady BoC policy but remains exposed to external demand fluctuations. • USD keeps its strength on higher yields and resilient US growth. • In the short term, USD/CAD may lean higher unless Canada’s economic data and oil prices bolster CAD or the Fed turns more dovish.

USDCAD Currency Pair Trend After Fed Chairman Powell TestifiesUSDCAD News: 🔆A White House official said late Tuesday that the 25% tariffs that U.S. President Donald Trump is planning to impose on all steel and aluminum imports will be added to other tariffs on Canadian goods, bringing the total to 50%. 🔆Earlier this month, Trump imposed 25% tariffs on most Canadian goods. However, those tariffs were suspended for 30 days last week. 🔆Canada appoints new fentanyl chief to coordinate anti-smuggling efforts, following through on previous Trump administration pledges to do more to stem the flow of fentanyl across the U.S. border Viewpoint: 🔆USD could continue to rise against CAD. With the DXY Index and U.S. 10-year Treasury yields currently rising, the USD could continue to rise against CAD. With Powell's neutral stance, the USDCAD pair is likely to continue its upward momentum yesterday after touching the support level of 1.427. And investors are waiting for further steps on Trump's tariff policy and today's US CPI to have a reasonable strategy.

USD/CAD: Breaking Below Key SupportChart Analysis: USD/CAD is showing signs of weakness, having dipped below the key 1.4300 support level, putting further downside into focus. 1️⃣ Breakdown Below Support: The 1.4300 level, which previously acted as strong support, has now failed. Sustained trading below this level could accelerate bearish momentum. 2️⃣ Moving Averages Tilting Bearish: 50-day SMA (1.4331): Recently breached, acting as newfound resistance. 200-day SMA (1.3872): Remains a key long-term support zone. 3️⃣ Momentum Indicators Reflect Weakness: RSI: 42.68, signaling bearish momentum but not yet oversold. MACD: Sliding further into negative territory, confirming downside bias. What to Watch: If price remains below 1.4300, downside targets include 1.4200, followed by the 1.4000 handle. A recovery back above 1.4300 could neutralize short-term downside pressure. Bearish momentum is building, but a potential oversold bounce could emerge if selling extends too aggressively. USD/CAD is at risk of deeper losses as support turns into resistance—further declines look likely unless bulls reclaim control. -MW

Use trailing SL to safeguard your money 💰. 📰🗞️Fundamental, Macro, Sentimental Outlook: 🟣 Fundamental and Macroeconomic Analysis US Dollar (USD): The USD remains strong due to the Federal Reserve's hawkish stance. The Fed has signaled potential rate hikes or prolonged higher rates to combat inflation, which supports the USD. Recent US economic data (e.g., strong labor market, resilient GDP growth) reinforces the Fed's tightening bias. Upcoming US CPI and PPI data will be critical. Higher-than-expected inflation could further boost the USD. Canadian Dollar (CAD): The CAD is influenced by oil prices (Canada is a major oil exporter). Crude oil prices have been volatile due to geopolitical tensions and OPEC+ production cuts, but recent stabilization around 80−85/barrel provides some support. The Bank of Canada (BoC) has paused rate hikes, citing slowing inflation and economic growth. This dovish stance weakens the CAD relative to the USD. Canada’s upcoming employment and GDP data will be key. Weakness in these metrics could further weigh on the CAD. Key Drivers: Interest Rate Differential: The Fed’s hawkishness vs. the BoC’s dovishness favors USD strength. Oil Prices: A sustained rise in oil prices could support the CAD, but current levels are not enough to offset USD strength. Economic Data: Strong US data vs. weaker Canadian data could widen the USD/CAD upside. 🟢 Commitments of Traders (COT) Report The latest COT data shows: Commercial Traders (Hedgers): Increasing long positions in the CAD, suggesting they expect some CAD strength or USD weakness in the medium term. Non-Commercial Traders (Speculators): Net long on USD, reflecting bullish sentiment toward the USD. Retail Positioning: Retail traders are heavily short on USD/CAD, which often acts as a contrarian indicator, suggesting further upside potential for USD/CAD. 🔵 Market Sentiment and Positioning Sentiment: The market is broadly bullish on the USD due to the Fed’s stance and strong US economic data. The CAD is viewed as vulnerable due to the BoC’s pause and reliance on oil prices, which are not currently providing enough support. 🟤 Positioning: Institutional investors are net long USD/CAD, aligning with the fundamental outlook. Retail traders are net short, which could lead to a squeeze higher if the USD continues to strengthen. 🔴 Market Sentiment and Positioning: COT Data: Non-commercial traders (speculators) are net long on USD, reflecting bullish sentiment. Retail traders are net short on USD/CAD, which often acts as a contrarian indicator (bullish for USD/CAD).

USDCAD on 1h time frame . Testing historical Resistance levelsUSDCAD 1H Analysis – February 10, 2025 📈 Potential Bullish Reversal The chart shows a double bottom formation near 1.4280, which is a strong bullish reversal pattern.

If price clears 1.4550, the next target would be 1.4800. A rejection from resistance zones could lead to another decline. 📌 Conclusion: USDCAD is forming a potential bullish structure, but confirmation of a breakout above 1.4550 is needed before expecting further upside. 🚀

CAD: Skating on thin iceTariffs on Canada have been delayed for now, and USD/CAD has weakened back to mid-December levels. Our economists suspect these tariffs will be pushed back again before March 4, but see the risk that the President ultimately follows through with these tariffs as higher for Canada than for Mexico. Canada’s parliamentary stand-still, upcoming election, and political transition make a longer-term resolution with the US less certain than with Mexico. We think these risks mean that markets need to price a higher and more lasting tariff premium in USD/CAD. While tariffs are not our base case, markets have most likely gone too far towards unwinding the tariff premium since the extension. Options markets are placing a 25% probability on USD/CAD reaching Monday’s intraday highs over the next 3 months, and only a 10% chance of reaching 1.50. Meanwhile, we think that the risk of tariffs on Canada is closer to 40%, so these probabilities seem low by comparison. Long USD/CAD has performed quite well as a hedge when tariff risks escalate; we continue to think that it is a good option for investors looking for protection from increased trade tensions.
