LOONIE Likely to Test 1.31600 Level After Trendline Break!Hello Viewers, this is an instant trade signal! Therefore, please have a look at the main chart for the following vital trade details: • ENTRY POINT • STOP LOSS • TAKE PROFIT • RISK TO REWARD The setup may look simple but I can assure you it is NOT. There are various in depth technical and fundamental analysis incorporated behind the execution. I would very much love to explain these two aspects here but doing that would consume ample amount of time which could affect the appropriate entry point behind this trade! So, to keep it simple the main chart just displays the simplified technical view of this trade. My way of performing technical analysis basically starts by breaking down the monthly Timeframe down until the One Hour charts. The following are the aspects I focus most on when performing technical analysis: • Draw Support & Resistance through key common psychological levels on M & W Charts. This helps me to see where the price might stall or breakout. • Draw Trendlines to determine the dynamic support and resistance levels present on the charts. This helps me to determine where the price might stall and most importantly help determine the path of least resistance behind the active trade. • I also tend to use EMA 50 on all the Timeframes. This EMA 50 is proficiently proven to act as dynamic support and resistance and is vital behind all my analysis. • Lastly, I tend to use classic pivot levels to determine my entry, stop loss and take profit levels. The combination of this and all of the above helps me determine the precise and likely trade targets behind the setup. Another aspect of my way of analysis is reading a lot of news to determine the fundamental aspects affecting any trade. After the technical analysis is performed, I tend to match if the fundamental aspect really supports my technical analysis. Therefore, as you could see, putting all my thoughts here would surely take up a lot of time which could make the price drift away from the entry price thus affecting the Risk to reward ratio. I understand it is vital for many of you to know the details behind this trade setup, and so if you are interested you could send me message and I will try to share most of what I can! The Above words are just template I use in all my trades. Shall there be any updates I will provide them here. Thank you

Update: GBP/CAD - 1000 Pips Achieved (More to Go)*Yellow = 200 EMA | Blue = 100 EMA This update is for OANDA:GBPCAD . I predicted (accurately) that price would find support at ~1.58165 , and it successfully rebounded off of this is level and has found resistance at ~1.65918 . We currently pushing off this resistance level and first found support around mid-August. The close on Friday (Sept 20th) is critical because it is a strong bearish candle with a relatively large tail looking similar to a bearish hammer pattern. This is printing on a resistance level which is both horizontal and diagonal. The horizontal is the standard resistance at ~1.65918, but the diagonal is a trendline drawn from peaks in Mid-January 2016, Mid-March 2018, and late December 2018. On top of that, price is attempting to cross the 100 EMA which can act as additional resistance. What to look for?: a) Tenkan-Sen and Kijun-Sen are on the rise along with a Kumo Flip. This is clearly bullish and could mean any resistance OANDA:GBPCAD is facing is minimal, and these 2 moving averages (Conversion and Base) could act as support on a retracement. b) Keep an eye on Fib Levels for support on a retracement specifically 0.382 and 0.5 - These levels have been used as support for retracements off this support in the past (January and September 2017). c) RSI(14) shows that this pair is still not overbought and could easily continue upward which moves in confluence with other factors which indicates only minor resistance. Good luck Traders!

USD/CAD shaken after drone attackThe pair started the week with a wide gap following news about a drone attack on Saudi's Aramco which lifted oil prices and its correlated currencies such as the Canadian dollar. The fact that the pair hasn't been able to fill the gap around 1.3270 suggests that this up channel on hourly charts might break to the downside targeting 1.320, 1.3150 and below if the recovery of the oil market takes longer than expected. Keep an eye on the latest headlines regarding this incidence, and the FOMC on Wednesday. Good luck

AUDCAD willing to long or short?!Loonie strength from the spike in oil prices and risk aversion sentiment likely pushing down the Aussie dollar. We actually saw the price above the 0.91250 last week but this morning on Asian session bears on the pair quickly jumped on that opportunity to short AUD/CAD once again. Going forward, volatility could stay up on AUD/CAD as we will likely continue to see further developments on the Saudi attacks, and we may even get help from upcoming economic updates from both Canada (manufacturing sales) and Australia (RBA meeting minutes & home prices). So, depending on how those economic updates flash out, we could see types of setups for both the bulls and the bears. If we're bear on this pair, there are a couple of technical setups to watch if the market environment stays risk-averse and bullish on oil prices. Strong resistance has formed around the (0.9125) area where price retested nearly before the European session. Seller dragged price lower once again. We’ve got to watch the broken older resistance area (0.9050). A break lower there would likely draw in momentum sellers in this environment, and the potential R:R would be attractive around the previous swing lows (0.8925). If we're bull on this pair, the short-term trend higher is in our favor and this pullback lower could be a fresh buying opportunity. If risk aversion sentiment fades and the Australian data comes out positive, then a break above the resistance (0.9125) is our cue to start working on a long position plan. The next potential resistance area July 2019 highs (0.9245), so the potential return-on-risk of a swing trade looks very attractive around that level. Cheers!

CRUDE OIL & USD Weakness Might Send LOONIE Towards 1.29500!INSTANT ENTRY AT AROUND: 1.31800 LEVEL POSITION TYPE: SHORT STOP LOSS: 1.34200 TAKE PROFIT: 1.29500 RR: 1:1 SHALL THERE BE ANY UPDATES I WILL UPDATE THEM IN THE THREAD. BELOW YOU CAN FIND THE EXPLANATION BEHIND THIS TRADE SETUP The main chart shows the price confined in a upward slopping channel on the weekly TF which has been respected on multiple occasions. At the moment we could see that the weekly candle not only breached the lower end of the channel but also close below the crucial dynamic support of the weekly 50 EMA!. This suggests that the price is ready to potentially head down towards the 1.29500 level where another concrete upward trendline is presents. Furthermore, the sanctions imposed by U.S on iran and further ongoing dispute has already made WTI price rise higher. Further tensions are to be expected in the future which would potentially make WTI jump higher. CAD is strongly correlated with OIL prices and any move in the OIL prices would move the LOONIE in the same direction. Additionally The USD weakness will likely gather pace in the coming weeks as prospect on economic slowdown and rate cut has hit the greenback very bad. Therefore we have at the moment both technical and fundamental picture on our sides. as the days go we will see the news develop further and see the a clear picture.

USDCAD remained heavy USDCAD has remained heavy after posting a 24-day low at 1.3191 yesterday, which extended the correction from the two-and-a-half month high that was printed on Tuesday at 1.3382. The recouperation in risk appetite in global markets, with the U.S. and China headed back to the negotiating table, has been a positive for the Canadian Dollar, and other commodity currencies. Oil prices are up over 2% from week-ago levels (WTI futures). Resistance comes in at 1.3270-73. The dual releases of U.S. and Canadian employment reports will naturally bring directional risk to USD-CAD. The August U.S. payrolls is expected to show resilience in the labour market, anticipating a a 165k August headline rise that about matches the 164k July increase, with the jobless rate ticking down to 3.6% from 3.7%, alongside gains of 0.3% for both hours-worked and hourly earnings. The Canadian employment report has us expecting a 30k gain in August after the 24.2k drop in July, with the jobless rate holding steady at 5.7%. As-expected data shouldn't have much bearing on USD-CAD.

USDCAD Likely To Test 1.3000 Amid Stubborn BOC and Risk ON Mood!The main chart shows the WEEKLY TF of USDCAD pair. There was a neat ascending channel that was violated a few months ago and the price went to test around 1.30200 level. Since then the price has been steadily rising until it HIT 1.33600 level. This created a short term ascending channel which was clearly violated a couple of days back and now the price is likely to target 1.3000 level. The above chart shows the DAILY TF of USDCAD, which shows the channel has been violated and its potential target! The main chart shows the price has been confined in a triangle and the price is likely to target the lower end of the trendline which lies at around 1.3000 level. To support this technical aspects, the fundamental aspects also align neatly together. First of all the Bank of CANADA left the interest unchanged and continue their wait and see approach rather than just easing like the other central banks. This is bullish for the LOONIE, however i feel the price will hit 1.3000 level after which the bank will start to be dovish and the price will likely bounce and test the 1.34000 level in the future. To add to this, the demand for OIL at the moment is adequate as the talks of trade deal continue. Since OIL is the major driver behind this CAD pair, if the talks continue to progress well we could see LOONIE get stronger. I am already short on USDCAD since 3 months ago when the main weekly channel broke, however the price only HIT 1.30200 level before reversing. My take profit at the moment is 1.3000 with SL at 1.34000. Should you wish to enter you can do so if and only if the RR is 1 or greater than 1. Cheers

EURCAD - Sell Small Position at Market after BOC!Despite the rally in risk assets, the negatives that sent the EUR lower have not changed. The economic gloom in Europe remains and, despite the north-south divide on the ECB board, many still expect policy easing, if not in September than before year-end as Christine Lagarde ascends to the presidency. Thus EUR/CAD is likely to continue to trend lower. Larger option expiries above current spot should help to cap too. At the same time, the Bank of Canada came out with a less dovish statement yesterday, which should boost the Loonie in the near-term. Sell a small position at market as we are breaking through the previous support zones from August.

EURCAD Weekly Trendline Violated! Price Likely To Target 1.43500Have a look at the main weekly TF for EURCAD. The horizontal lines represents support and resistance levels taken from the monthly TF. The July's monthly candle closed below 1.47000 support and additionally the August's Candle formed a strong doji rejecting and closing below the 1.47000 support. This is a strong indication that the price would likely gather pace towards the next support present at 1.43500. Furthermore, the Longterm trendline on weekly and monthly charts was violated, Further suggesting a decline is on the cards! The chart above is Monthly TF charts of EURCAD indicating the LONG-TERM Trendline violation and monthly candle breaching and closing below the support. Fundamentally the EUR is bound for further incoming weakness as the ECB is struggling to hit their inflation target and the new incoming president has already suggested the rates could further go into negative territory in order to support the growth. I am already SHORTING the EURCHF, which has slight correlation to this pair and furthermore i am already SHORT on the USDCAD. Due to these factors and i am not willing to take this trade because it would increase my risk exposure and violate rules of trading. For those of you who would like to take this pair SHORT, you could do this at your own risk with the target of 1.43500 and RR of 1:1. This trade in my view is a high probability trade with many confluence factors in favor of us. cheers

CAD in rally on Canada's CPI grow By Andria Pichidi - August 21, 2019 USD-CAD fell to 1.3250 from near 1.3300, matching Monday's low, following the warmer Canada CPI figures. The pairing had been on the decline from the 1.3315 level seen in London morning trade, taking its cue from WTI crude, which rallied to seven-session highs of $56.94 from post-close lows of $55.91. Between firm oil and risk-on conditions, USD-CAD should remain under pressure for the time being. Support is at the 20-day moving average of 1.3236 now.
