USD/CAD Bulls Emerge at Support- Breakout ExtendsUSD/CAD rebounded off the lower parallel of the March downtrend with a breakout of the weekly opening-range extending into pivotal resistance. Support now rests with the low-day close (LDC) / 61.8% retracement of the December 2023 advance / monthly open at 1.3778/98- a break / close below this threshold would be needed to mark downtrend resumption towards the 78.6% retracement of the September advance at 1.3714 and the March high at 1.3614 . A topside breach above this pivot zone at the median-line exposes key resistance at 1.3977-1.4010 - a region defined by the 2022 high, the 2020 March weekly reversal close and the 200-day moving average. A close above this region would be needed to suggest a more significant low was registered this week / a larger reversal is underway with subsequent objectives eyed at the 1.41 -handle and 1.4149/78 - look for a larger reaction there IF reached. Bottom line: A rebound off downtrend support takes USD/CAD into the topside of a multi-week range – risk of a larger recovery while above the weekly open. From a trading standpoint, losses should be limited to 1.3778 IF price is heading higher on this stretch – look for a larger reaction on test of the 200-day moving average. -MB

USDCAD – Reversal Setup Ahead of FOMC DecisionUSD/CAD has bounced off strong support near 1.3770, forming a clean bullish structure into a pivotal week dominated by the FOMC meeting. Price action shows higher lows and a tightening range, signaling a potential breakout. With the Fed expected to hold rates but maintain a hawkish tone, the USD may regain strength — especially against the CAD, which remains under pressure from trade risks and weak oil prices. 🔹 Technical Setup: Structure: Rejection at 1.3770 support with ascending trendline developing. Pattern: Bullish flag breakout (visible on 2H chart). Momentum: Recovery candles suggest buyers regaining control ahead of resistance. Key Levels: Support: 1.3770 – 1.3780 Resistance: TP1: 1.3852 (Fib 61.8%) TP2: 1.3891 (swing high zone) TP3: 1.3950 (major breakout target) Invalidation: Below 1.3760 🧠 Fundamental View: USD Outlook: The Fed is widely expected to hold interest rates steady on May 7, but officials are pushing back against early rate-cut expectations. Chair Powell is likely to emphasize inflation risks and signal no imminent easing. This stance supports USD resilience, especially if the Fed reiterates “higher for longer” messaging. CAD Outlook: The Canadian economy continues to face export challenges from U.S. tariffs, weakening business sentiment. Meanwhile, softening oil prices reduce support for the CAD. With the Bank of Canada having already delivered several rate cuts, it remains more dovish than the Fed — creating a widening policy divergence. 💡 Trade Idea: Bias: Bullish above 1.3780 Entry Zone: 1.3800–1.3820 Target 1: 1.3852 Target 2: 1.3891 Target 3: 1.3950 Stop Loss: Below 1.3760 📌 Watch for volatility during and after the FOMC statement and Powell’s press conference. A hawkish surprise could fuel a sharp move toward 1.39+.

USD/CAD 30M CHART PATTERNThe chart presents a bullish setup on the USD/CAD pair with an entry at 1.38100. Price action is respecting an ascending trendline, showing higher lows and potential for further upside movement. A breakout above the resistance zone around 1.38400 signals possible continuation of the trend. The Ichimoku cloud provides additional support to the bullish bias. This setup is ideal for traders looking for short-term gains, provided the breakout sustains. Risk should be managed with stops placed below the trendline or recent swing low to protect against a false breakout. Entry: 1.38100 TP1: 1.38600 TP2: 1.39000

USD/CAD Hints at Bullish ReversalBearish momentum has continued to wane on USD/CAD, as bears continue to make hard work of fresh cycle lows. That has allowed a bullish RSI divergence to form on the daily chart alongside a falling wedge pattern. That is has formed around historical VPOC (volume point of controls) adds further weight to the potential bullish reversal. Also note that a bullish engulfing candle formed on Wednesday to suggest a bullish breakout could be pending. Bulls could seek dips towards the September VPOC in anticipation of a bullish breakout, and retain a bullish prices while they remain above recent swing lows. The core target is the base of the wedge, just below 1.4. Matt Simpson, Market Analyst at City Index and Forex.com

USDCAD Massive Long! BUY!The USD/CAD exchange rate is currently at a critical juncture, and the Fed's interest rate decision will be the focus of the market in the near future. Traders generally expect the Fed to keep interest rates unchanged at this meeting, but the market is more concerned about Powell's statement at the press conference, especially his response to tariff uncertainty and the political pressure from Trump to cut interest rates. However, the domestic data in Canada is putting pressure on the Canadian dollar. The seasonally adjusted Ivey Purchasing Managers' Index in Canada in April was much lower than expected, dropping from 51.2 in the forecast to 48.0, indicating that business sentiment is deteriorating. Recently, after the exchange rate broke through the important psychological level of 1.3900, the kinetic energy has further increased, and it has quickly approached the 1.3750 support area. The RSI indicator is currently at the 35.49 level. Although it has not yet entered the strict oversold area, it is already close to this level, which may mean that a technical rebound will occur in the short term. Currently, the 1.3750 - 1.3700 range has become a key support area. This area is both a key technical position and a psychological support. If this range is broken, the next target may be the 1.3610 level. The resistance levels above are first 1.3900, and then the psychological level of 1.4000. you are currently struggling with losses, or are unsure which of the numerous trading strategies to follow, at this moment, you can choose to observe the operations within our channel.

USD/CAD could decrease to C$1.35The US dollar has weakened recently against other major currencies including the euro, pound and yen. While it may not have grabbed the headlines, there’s another currency we can add to that list: the Canadian dollar. The Canadian dollar – which was trading at around C$1.45 per US dollar at the end of January – may continue to strengthen against its southerly neighbour in the near term, potentially reaching C$1.35 per US dollar. Let’s examine why. The area between C$1.38 and C$1.39 has previously served as a resistance zone for USD/CAD, marking significant tops in 2022, 2023 and 2024. Each time, this area ended the dollar’s gains and led to a renewed period of Canadian dollar strength. The pattern changed in October 2024, when – after multiple failed attempts to break through resistance – USD/CAD finally pushed to a new high of C$1.45. Now, as USD/CAD declines from that peak, the old resistance area of C$1.38 to C$1.39 is providing support. If USD/CAD falls below support at C$1.38, it could decline towards C$1.347, partly because there are no meaningful levels of support to slow such a move. A falling bear flag pattern also seems to be forming, suggesting that a breakdown may be imminent, potentially supporting a drop to around C$1.35. Meanwhile, the completion of the diamond reversal top that formed from December 2024 to March 2025 could imply a return to the pattern’s origin near C$1.35. The USD/CAD chart pattern also shows a high degree of symmetry between the left and right sides. In other words, the decline on the right side is occurring at a similar pace to the earlier rise on the left. Completing this symmetrical pattern might suggest a return to the starting point around C$1.35. Of course, if support at C$1.38 holds and the Canadian dollar does not strengthen further, a swift rise for the US dollar back towards C$1.41 cannot be ruled out.

USDCAD INTRADAY range trading capped at 1.4050The USDCAD pair is exhibiting a bearish sentiment, reinforced by the ongoing downtrend. The key trading level to watch is at 1.4060, which represents the current intraday swing low and the falling resistance trendline level. In the short term, an oversold rally from current levels, followed by a bearish rejection at the 1.4060 resistance, could lead to a downside move targeting support at 1.3780, with further potential declines to 1.3730 and 1.3630 over a longer timeframe. On the other hand, a confirmed breakout above the 1.4060 resistance level and a daily close above that mark would invalidate the bearish outlook. This scenario could pave the way for a continuation of the rally, aiming to retest the 1.4080 resistance, with a potential extension to 1.4160 levels. Conclusion: Currently, the USDCAD sentiment remains bearish, with the 1.4060 level acting as a pivotal resistance. Traders should watch for either a bearish rejection at this level or a breakout and daily close above it to determine the next directional move.
