CANADA: USDCAD Eyes Third Resistance Level Of The Day

Aug-22 13:49
  • USDCAD hits new session highs with the slump in oil before a further boost from the weak US open, touching 1.3032 in the process (+0.3%).
  • The move comes despite the weakest negative correlation between USDCAD and WTI in absolute terms since early July on a 20-day rolling basis, with E-mini S&P negative correlation is at more typical levels.
  • Having already cleared two tightly packed resistance levels including Friday’s high of 1.3009, focus is on 1.3035 (61.8% retrace of Jul 14 – Aug 11 downleg) after which it could open mid-July levels, including 1.3135 (Jul 15 high).
