do take caution and enter with ur confirmation. cheers!
USDCAD Consolidation: Eyeing a Breakout Above Key Resistance USDCAD is currently trading at 1.443, with a target price of 1.490, suggesting a potential gain of over 500 pips. The analysis is based on the support and resistance pattern, indicating that the pair is holding its main resistance level. A breakout above this resistance level is being anticipated. Currently, the pair is in a consolidation phase, where price movements are relatively limited. This phase often signifies market indecision and can precede significant price action. Traders are closely monitoring the breakout potential, as a breach of resistance could signal strong upward momentum. The technical setup suggests bullish sentiment, with the resistance level acting as a critical price point. If the breakout occurs, it may confirm the continuation of the uptrend. However, traders should remain cautious and consider potential reversals if the resistance holds.
Massive Reversal Incoming? USDCAD Showing Exhaustion Signals!(Apologies if the video is hard to understand—I bit my tongue during boxing sparring this morning!)
USDCAD has been on an incredible 17-week rally, but the price now appears extremely overextended and is showing signs of exhaustion.
Yesterday's NFP report brought a huge upside surprise, fueling a strong USD rally against all major currencies. While EURUSD, GBPUSD, NZDUSD, and AUDUSD all hit multi-year lows, USDCAD initially spiked higher but then sold off sharply, closing the day just above 1.44.
This marks the first clear sign of buying exhaustion—despite USD strength across the board, USDCAD failed to make new highs.
Additionally, this week’s candle formation caught my eye. It looks like a classic hanging man pattern, which typically appears at the top of a move, signaling an imminent reversal.
Zooming into the daily charts, we can see a clear distribution range forming, with sideways price action after a strong rally. The MACD is showing divergence, and recent price increases have been accompanied by negative volume—another strong indicator of a potential reversal.
As explained in the video, I see two likely scenarios for entering this trade:
False Breakout: A spike above the distribution range, potentially towards or just above 1.45, followed by a sharp sell-off. This would be my preferred entry.
Big Red Candle: A strong bearish candle early next week, signaling it’s time to enter short.
For this position, my first target is the previous monthly resistance at 1.405, and my second target—more likely—is 1.385, which is now a support level.
While I expect some bounce at these levels, I believe the longer-term move will see USDCAD fall back into its range, with a potential drop toward 1.32 very much on the cards.
Let me know your thoughts below!
USDCAD Forecast: Time to Buy!Based on the latest analysis using the EASY Trading AI strategy, my outlook for the USDCAD currency pair is decidedly bullish. The current entry price of 1.43916 presents a viable buying opportunity, aiming for a take profit level of 1.44094667, while setting a stop loss at 1.43690667.
Several factors contribute to this optimistic stance. The overall trend has shown a consistent upward movement fueled by positive economic indicators from Canada, coupled with underlying U.S. dollar weakness due to concerns regarding monetary policy shifts. Additionally, momentum oscillators signal significant buying interest, suggesting that traders are eager to enter this market.
The technical setup further supports this buy signal, as we see strong support around the current price level. The presence of multiple bullish candlestick patterns indicates potential for a rally. The EASY Trading AI model has consistently outperformed expectations with its precision, and based on its empirical data, this trade has a high probability of success.
For those trading on their own, keep a close watch on news releases and global economic shifts, as these can impact currency valuations.

USD/CAD: Key Support and Resistance Levels Ahead of Labor Market
Traders are closely watching the USD/CAD pair as labor market data from both the United States and Canada are set to be released today. Forecasts suggest a decline in Canadian employment change from 59k to 24.9k, accompanied by a rise in the unemployment rate from 6.8% to 6.9%. In contrast, U.S. non-farm payroll data is expected to show a decrease in job creation to 164k, while the unemployment rate is anticipated to remain steady at 4.2%.
These data releases are likely to impact the USD/CAD pair's movements significantly. Analysts suggest that higher employment rates in either country would support their respective currency, while rising unemployment rates would have a negative impact on the currency involved.
Technical outlook
Beyond today's data, the USD/CAD pair is currently trading in a bearish trend on the 4-hour timeframe after recently hitting a new low at 1.43045. Analysts view the recent upward movement as a corrective rebound, with a return to the 1.44271 level potentially reinforcing the likelihood of a further decline toward 1.43195.
On the other hand, if the pair continues its upward trajectory and breaches the 1.44670 level with a 4-hour candle closing above this level, experts predict the trend could shift to a bullish direction.

USD/CAD in holding pattern ahead of US, Cdn. jobs dataThe Canadian dollar started the week with strong gains but has shown little movement since then. In the European session, USD/CAD is trading at 1.4411, up 0.12% at the time of writing. We could see stronger movement from the Canadian dollar in the North American session, with the release of Canadian and US employment reports.
Canada's economy may not be in great shape but the labor market remains strong. The economy added an impressive 50.5 thousand jobs in November and is expected to add another 24.9 thousand in December. Still, the unemployment rate has been steadily increasing and is expected to tick up to 6.9% in December from 6.8% a month earlier. A year ago, the unemployment rate stood at 5.8%. This disconnect between increased employment and a rising unemployment rate is due to a rapidly growing labor market which has been boosted by high immigration levels.
Another sign that the labor market is in solid shape is strong wage growth. Average hourly wages have exceeded inflation and this complicates the picture for the Bank of Canada as it charts its rate path for early 2025. The BoC has been aggressive, delivering back-to-back half point interest rate cuts in October and December 2024. Inflation is largely under control as headline CPI dipped to 1.9% in November from 2% in October. However, core inflation is trending around 2.6%, well above the BoC's target of 2%. The central bank is likely to take a more gradual path in its easing, which likely means that upcoming rate cuts will be in increments of 25 basis points. The BoC meets next on Jan. 29.
In the US, all eyes are on today's nonfarm payrolls report. The market estimate stands at 160 thousand for December, compared to 227 thousand in November. The US labor market has been cooling slowly and the Federal Reserve would like that trend to continue as it charts its rate cut path for the coming months. An unexpected reading could have a strong impact on the direction of the US dollar in today's North American session.

USDCAD - Long Trade (10th Jan 2025)Straightforward long trade setup on USDCAD. Not aiming for anything high. Just want to illustrate the efficacy of this type of setup based on low-hanging fruit objectives, which in this case is the immediate swing high. Why not the other one since it is so close? Well, sometimes we get additional manipulation. Today is also NFP, so will take any moves against me before pushing up with a grain of salt.
