Canadian Dollar : Hopes on Local Retail Sales
USD/CAD rallied for the third trading session in a row as US dollar imposed the strong tone again this week. The pair is on the path of clocking yesterday's high at 1.3164 as US Index peeks again to 101.64 today. Crude oil bearish forces with -$0.83 added additional losses for the loonie and USD/CAD surged +54 pips since Wednesday's opening session.
CAD Fundamentals :
Core Retail Sales today at 1:30 PM GMT
USD Fundamentals :
1- FOMC meeting minutes tonight at 7:00 PM GMT
2- Unemployment claims tomorrow at 1:30 PM GMT.
Technical levels to watch:
Trend : Bearish Sideways
Daily Pp : 1.3135
Resistance levels : R1 1.3177, R2 1.3248, R3 1.3304
Support levels : S1 1.3128, S2 1.3075, S3 1.3014
Remark : Look forward for Canadian data today but the main focus will be on FOMC meeting tonight and US unemployment claims tomorrow as US Dollar is dominant. Also Crude Oil levels tend to have an impact on USD/CAD considering Canada is a major oil producer. Closing above R2 level, the cable will shift to bullish trend.
