Fundamental Analysis:- The USD/CAD pair continued losing ground through the early European session and is currently placed near the lower end of its daily trading range, just below the 1.3300 round-figure mark. The pair failed to capitalize on the previous session’s goodish intraday positive move to four-month tops and met with some fresh supply. . A modest rebound in crude oil prices underpinned demand for the commodity-linked currency. Despite concerns over the economic impact of the deadly corona virus, the expected new round of economic stimulus measures by China provided a modest boost to the global risk sentiment. This eventually triggered a rally in equity markets and led the recovery in oil prices, now up over 1% for the day.
Meanwhile, the US dollar stood tall near multi-week tops and was further supported by a strong pickup in the US Treasury bond yields. traders, however, seemed unimpressed by sustained USD buying interest, rather preferred to lighten their bullish position ahead of the FED Chair Jerome Powell’s semiannual testimony before the congress.
The RSI turned back from overbought territory which is providing trend reversal signal whereas a bearish crossover on the MACD indicator is providing us bearish signal. Odds are in favor of bears and intraday bias remains bearish on the pair as long as 1.3300 level remains intact. It’s an early sell call but there is good risk and reward ratio to sell the pair here.
What next:- The 1.3300 level is key resistance level followed by 1.3350 level whereas 1.3150 level is key support level follwed by 1.3100 level.
Trade idea:- Based on chart and studies above we can suggest to our readers that go for sell around 1.3240 level for the target of 1.3180 level and 1.3100 with the tight stop loss of 1.3300 level.
