USDCAD - Is History Repeating Itself?Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
📈 USDCAD has been overall bullish , trading within the rising wedge pattern marked in blue.
Today, USDCAD broke above its previous major high (marked in red).
🏹 As it retests this previous high, it will also intersect with the lower blue trendline, which acts as a dynamic support level.
📚 According to my trading style:
As #USDCAD approaches the red zone, I'll be watching for bullish reversal setups—such as a double bottom pattern, a trendline break, and more.
📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!
All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly!

USDCAD trade ongoingSo, my idea from 3 weeks back in time played out early this week. My limit order was hit and this turned out to be a beautiful trade. Partials already closed with nice profits, and SL has been moved to entry. Currently, the trade has gained 390 pips, and is testing a quite respected support level that seems to be weakening.
USDCAD SHORT: Divergence in employment data!Canada's January employment change 76.0K vs 25.0K estimate.
US January non-farm payrolls +143K vs +170K expected
NFP data came in lower than expected while employment data came in stronger than expected for the CAD. Due to the result, we expected the pairs to move in opposite directions with the USD being the weaker of the two pairs.
NFP-How NFP Will Play Out Today?The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released the January 2025 Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) report today, February 7, 2025, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. The report indicates that the U.S. economy added 170,000 jobs in January, with the unemployment rate holding steady at 4.1%. This reflects a moderation in job growth compared to December's addition of 256,000 jobs.
REUTERS.COM
Analysts attribute the slowdown in job growth to disruptions caused by wildfires in California and cold weather conditions, which are estimated to have reduced job numbers by approximately 40,000, particularly in sectors like accommodation, food services, and construction.
REUTERS.COM
Additionally, this month's report includes significant annual benchmark revisions, incorporating updated population weights and seasonal adjustment models. These revisions have led to a downward adjustment of previous employment estimates, indicating that fewer jobs were created in 2024 than initially reported.
BUSINESSINSIDER.COM
Financial markets have shown minimal movement in response to the report, as the figures align closely with economists' expectations. Futures linked to Wall Street's main indexes remained steady, with investors having anticipated a slowdown in job growth due to the aforementioned disruptions.
REUTERS.COM
In summary, while the January 2025 NFP report indicates a deceleration in job growth, the labor market remains resilient. However, potential challenges such as federal hiring freezes and trade tensions could impact future employment trends.

USDCAD: Tariffs delayedThe elephant in the room
The focal point of late has undoubtedly been US President Trump’s
proposed tariffs on Canadian goods shipped to the US. A 25% universal
tariff rate would be troublesome for the Canadian economy—despite
the exemption for energy products. But it would also have a notable
stagflationary effect on the US—making it an expensive strategy for Trump.
Further, Canada laid out its retaliation strategy which is designed to
respond in kind. We still think the tariffs will not be implemented in that
form and “deal making” will remain key in the Trump administration’s
strategy.
Canada not in a good place to begin with
Canada remains in a weak negotiation spot politically without a
functioning government in place and new elections likely later in 2Q.
Moreover, the economy is hurting given its high interest-rate sensitivity and
elevated Bank of Canada (BoC) policy rates for some time. Accordingly, the
BoC struck a cautious tone in their policy meeting last week and noted
their readiness to react to any economic shock in relation to US tariffs.
This would be much needed given fiscal stimulus is unlikely to come to the
rescue given Parliament remains prorogued until March.
USDCAD to retest 1.46 highs—even without tariffs
The market reaction to Trump’s proposed tariffs was rather benign and
was completely reversed following the delay in implementation. From here,
we do not see much of a risk premium priced into USDCAD and, rather,
the pair trades below what rates differentials suggest. While we do not
expect the tariffs to be implemented in the aforementioned form, a risk
of some adverse trade action remains. We think USDCAD can test 1.46
again in the coming months before edging lower later in the year. Broader
USD strength might also be enough to get there—even in the absence of
tariffs on Canada.
