USDCAD Conflicting CluesLast Friday we had unemployment figures from both Canada and the US. Below were the results. USA - Average Hourly Earnings (YoY): 5.4% USA - Nonfarm Payrolls: 49K USA - Unemployment Rate: 6.3% CAD - Employment Change: -212.8K CAD - Unemployment Rate: 9.4% Here you can see the US reported their unemployment rate at 6.3% signaling a nice improvement, following a not so nice NFP report with only 49k new jobs. On the other ide of this pair, Canada reported a much higher Unemployment figure at 9.4%. The initial reaction with USDCAD was bullish but then as the trading session progressed this pair continued getting weaker. Some key drivers heading into this week include: Earnings, Stimulus, Core CPI (Wednesday) US Federal Budget d (Wednesday) Fed Monetary Policy Report (Thursday) and perhaps some further CAD strength if Oil Continues it's bullish path towards $60. As we know, certainty surrounding additional stimulus supports a stronger equity market and thus drives the TVC:DXY lower. On a technical basis, the pair is indicating some strange behavioral patterns such as the convergence seen here on the daily chart. RSI did manage to close below 50 heading into Friday's close. A close below 50 does indicate that we could be heading lower but if you take a closer look how the 50 level behaved with this pair, you'll many instances when that may have been a misleading clue.. Needless to say, holding below 50 is taken into minor consideration, but we should also monitor the next 2 major fib levels such as the 50% and 61.8% illustrated on the chart. Key clues regarding the direction of this pair should include keeping a close tabs on the TVC:DXY TVC:SPX TVC:NDX TVC:VIX and of course overall market sentiment. Trading Recommendations == keep bullish trading activities light with this pair considering we may still see some further bearish downside == keep shorts limited as well considering there very well could be some upside towards 1.30 ------------------------- Please don't forget to FOLLOW, LIKE, and COMMENT ...

Oil markets seeing a brighter future24th February 2020 was when the last time we saw oil hovering around the $55.80 mark. The Oil markets were hammered in 2020, taking investors and traders back to their economics 101 classes. However, unlike traditional markets, the Oil markets have something traditional markets do not – controlled supply. OPEC+ controlling the supply of Oil OPEC+, a 24- country cartel, took drastic measures as of late to control the drop in oil price by restricting supply. The most recent supply cut by 1 million barrels a day by Saudi Arabia has pushed Oil markets to levels not seen since 24th February last year. Saudi’s unexpected move was on the back of the OPEC+ decision to gradually bring back supply to the market in January. However, the de-facto leader claims the Oil market throne The Energy Minister of the Oil-dependent country, Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman stated that “ are the guardian of the industry”, showing their influence in the Oil markets. Oil markets getting bullish recommendations from institutions Since December, Oil prices have rebounded 18% on the vaccine’s slow rollout, peaking at around $56 a barrel. With the rollout of Vaccinations, analysts at Goldman Sachs are becoming bullish on the Black Gold, stating that they predict Brent could rise to $65 a barrel by the summer of this year, bringing the timeline half a year from their previous prediction. However, they stated that “given the magnitude of the recent rally, however, markets are likely to consolidate near-term,” Given the Coronavirus situation worldwide, the demand situation has not improved to the point where it was on the 24th February, giving the price of oil the characteristic of a forward-looking stock instead of a spot looking commodity. However, if the vaccine continues to make its way around the world and demand truly starts picking up, we may see the Oil markets return back to a relative norm.

The CAD/JPY surrenders to the stability of the resistance The CADJPY pair attempted to form some correctional bullish trades recently, while the stability of 81.05 resistance blocks the bullish attempts and reinforces the chances of renewing the negative attempts. Note that it is important to gather the additional negative momentum to manage to crawl below 80.50 level and open the way to record the main negative targets by reaching 80.05 and 79.60 levels. With Risk Management you will Never loss. thank you

USOIL(WTI OIL) TECHNICAL ANALYSIS| Hello, Traders! USOIL looks pretty interesting on the higher timeframes We can see that 50$ is a strong technical as well as phycological level As well as a nice round number, which is important The rising resistance line forms a confluence with this resistance In a point where oil price is supposed to test the level Based on the fundamental news of a new strain of coronavirus Which will lead to more lockdowns and subsequent slowdown of the economic recovery Oil is loosing strength And while it might test 50$ I think it will drop to retest the strong support area of 40-41$ per barrel Lets see what will be the markets decision But I am bearish on oil right now Like, comment and subscribe to boost your trading!
