Loonie

USD/CAD came to retest the newly formed resistanceUSD/CAD has developed a nice bearish momentum after breaking the 4h timeframe trendline (around 1.30000). We are also in a descending channel on daily timeframe so the overall bias on the Loonie is bearish. The price has made a huge drop all the way to the 1.2920 area where it has found support. With the move to the downside yestersterday we have also broken the support that was set in the 1.2955 area and the price has now came to retest it. This sell zone has confluence with 50.0% fib retracement from the move yesterday and also a bearish flag/wedge pattern. Happy trading everyone!

[GBPCAD] BULLISH OUTLOOK HOLDS?GBPCAD, H4 UK August trade data revealed a bigger than expected deficit, of GBP 1.3 bln in the total trade figure, with the visible goods deficit coming in at GBP 11.2 bln. In the 3 months to August, the ex-inflation total trade deficit narrowed GBP 6.1 bln to GBP 0.8 bln, which was driven by both a narrowing in the goods deficit and an expansion in the services surplus. Meanwhile, UK August production data came in mixed today, with the broad industrial output headline slightly exceeding expectations with 0.2% m/m and 1.3% y/y growth while the narrower manufacturing production measure underwhelmed somewhat with an unexpected 0.2% m/m contraction. More timely September surveys, such as the PMI reports, have painted a relatively dimmer picture, with Brexit-related uncertainty taking a toll on confidence and crimping new investment. Even though the cloud of uncertainty over Brexit weighs on Sterling, today’s Brexit news boosted Sterling higher. A London Times article claimed that 30 Labour party MPs would reportedly back Prime Minister May’s Brexit plan at the last minute, if needed, to avoid a no-deal Brexit scenario, suggesting that there could be enough votes for the plan to pass a parliamentary vote, as this would offset Tory party rebels who are planning to vote against it. Cable managed to eke out a 2-week high at 1.3185, 15 pips below upwards handle as mentioned in yesterday's post. As the Pound remains on bid since the news release and in contrast with the mixed economic data front, most of the sterling crosses present the same performance. GBPCAD for example is currently retesting the immediate intraday Resistance level at 1.7060, which is just few pips below the 78.6% Fib level since the dive from 1.7200. The pair remains above 20- and 50-day SMA, for the fourth consecutive day. However, our focus turned on GBPCAD today, on the break of the 1.7038 level. Interestingly, this level coincides with the 2 consecutive upper fractals in the 4-hour chart but also with the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level since July's decline from the 1.7771 high. This along with the fact that the pair moves within the upper Bollinger band pattern and 20-period SMA crossed above 200-period SMA, added further positive bias in the near future. Technically, the same bullish picture is seen in momentum indicators, as RSI just crossed 70 barrier, indicating that there is further space to the upside. MACD presents a positive to neutral picture as MACD lines are flattened within the positive area, something that implies short term consolidation or weak momentum. Based on the positive outlook that GBPCAD presents so far, further upside movement is anticipated, with next Resistance levels at the round 1.7100 and 1.7165 level (200-day SMA). Immediate Support holds at the confluence of the 20-period SMA and 61.8% Fib. level, at 1.6975. Medium term Support level is set at 1.6920-1.6930 area (200-period SMA and 2low fractals). In the alternative scenario that bears push GBPCAD lower, only a closing into the lower daily Bollinger Band pattern, below the 1.6950 level, could drive the price to the 1.6830 Support level reached on Friday. Such a break could confirm the possibility of significant losses and it will alert the retest of the 2-month triple bottom at 1.6595.  Andria Pichidi Market Analyst HotForex Disclaimer: This material is provided as a general marketing communication for information purposes only and does not constitute an independent investment research.

USD/CAD - Ichimoku Long Trade SetupAfter a sizable drop USD/CAD is back near the top of the kumo. Tenken and Kijun have gone a little flat here meaning we've lost some momentum, but I am watching for a possible bullish breakout here this week. I would still like to see a bullish kumo twist complete to help confirm a buy entry as well as a move up above our previous resistance we've been seeing. We've got a good risk to reward here once we see those things happen. It may take another drop down to tenken sen or the kumo before that possible move up even happens, if it happens at all. If we fail to hold support or get the breakout we're looking for, this setup may become invalidated.

USDCAD - Potential Long Setup at MarketPrice has completed a 3-wave structure, and is now showing some minor bounce at the bottom of the channel. We are expecting price to make a new high should the rejection from this bottom holds true. Potentially a very good risk-reward trade setup. *Disclaimer - This analysis alone DOES NOT warrant a buy or sell trade immediately. Before you enter any trade in the financial market, it is very important that you have a proper trading plan and risk management approach.

Fibonacci Long For The USD/CADAs long as the current swing high (1.3226) remains the high-water mark of the current wave on the daily chart, then a buying opportunity may set up for later this week. Until Friday’s close, or until the current swing high is taken out, buy orders from just above the 38% retracement from 1.3097 are solid entry to the bull. Using a standard 1:1 risk vs reward and an initial stop loss at 1.3049, this trade produces 48 pips on a return to the current value area (1.3150).

GBPCAD Short Position High risk trade. Comments from Barnier yesterday confirmed that the EU were prepared to offer the UK a bespoke package to avoid a no deal Brexit. The rally brings GBPCAD straight back into the daily descending resistance line. We have a clear zone of sellers waiting to push price back to 1.6591 Following a break of this support, we could expect a leg lower to support at 1.6370 Technicals overrule the market but if Soft Brexit takes over the news networks, GBP may remain bullish.

GBPCAD Update - Pennant invalid > Potential AB=CD PatternGBPCAD Bearish Pennant Pattern is invalid by now but that still could be a bearish ascending wedge. Using fibbonacci on H4 timeframe, I realized that an AB=CD pattern is in formation and maybe it finished. If it breaks below the 1.272 level on H4 and make lower lows on H1 & M30 that's your cue to sell the pair. TP levels are the same as the last idea, safe entry is still the same. STOP LOSS, however, is above the last candle's wick on H4.
