돈되는 정보

    expected at the last meeting with basically no change to the statement.
  • Fed Chair Powell stressed
    once again that they are proceeding carefully as the full effects of policy
    tightening have yet to be felt.
  • The US Core PCE last
    week came in line with forecasts with the disinflationary progress continuing
    steady.
  • The labour market continues to show weakness as Continuing
    Claims are now rising at a fast pace with the last NFP report
    missing across the board. This week’s Job Openings and ADP came
    below forecasts. although the Jobless Claims were
    better than expected.
  • The ISM Manufacturing
    PMI

    last week missed expectations falling further into contraction, while the ISM Services PMI beat
    forecasts holding on in expansion.

    their stance to a more neutral position.
  • The market expects the Fed to start cutting rates
    as soon as Q1 2024.

    5.00%
    as expected with the usual caveat that
    it’s prepared to raise the policy rate further if needed.
  • BoC Governor Macklem recently has been leaning on a more
    neutral side as inflation continues to abate.
  • The recent Canadian CPI missed expectations across the
    board and the underlying inflation measures eased, which was a welcome
    development for the BoC.

    cutting rates in Q2 2024.

USDCAD Technical Analysis –
Daily Timeframe

USDCAD Daily

On the daily chart, we can see that USDCAD pulled
back into the downward trendline where we
have also the confluence with the
50% Fibonacci retracement level
and the red 21 moving average. This is
where the sellers are likely to pile in with a defined risk above the trendline
to position for another drop into the swing low at 1.3382. The buyers, on the
other hand, will want to see the price breaking higher to invalidate the
bearish setup and position for a rally into the highs.

USDCAD Technical
Analysis – 4 hour Timeframe

USDCAD 4 hour

On the 4
hour chart, we can see more closely the bearish setup around the trendline
where there’s also the resistance defined
by the previous major swing low and the round psychological 1.36
handle. What happens around this resistance zone will likely decide where the
pair will head next as a strong rejection should lead to new lows while a break
to the upside is likely to trigger a rally into the previous highs.

USDCAD Technical Analysis –
1 hour Timeframe

USDCAD 1 hour

On the 1 hour chart, we can see that the latest
leg higher diverged with
the MACD which
is generally a sign of weakening momentum often followed by pullbacks or
reversals. In this case, it might be another bearish confluence for the sellers
as it’s happening right at the key resistance zone. The sellers already piled
in at the resistance with a defined risk above it and if the price was to
revisit that level, we can expect even more sellers stepping in. If the price
falls and breaks the recent higher low at 1.3550 though, the sellers are likely
to increase their bearish bets as the market structure on this timeframe will
switch to a downtrend again.

Upcoming Events

Today all eyes will be on the US NFP report as it
could increase the amount of rate cuts expected in 2024 or reverse some of them.
