Will CAD bulls eventually fade away?During the North American session, the USD/CAD exchange rate continued its downward trend and is currently trading above 1.3600, approaching the support zone at 1.3600. If the exchange rate effectively holds the 1.3600 support zone, accompanied by RSI bottom divergence and MACD death cross repair signals, there may be a short-term technical rebound. The initial resistance above is still at 1.3700. If it can break through, it may open up space to 1.3800.
Humans need to breathe, and perfect trading is like breathing—maintaining flexibility without needing to trade every market swing. The secret to profitable trading lies in implementing simple rules: repeating simple tasks consistently and enforcing them strictly over the long term.

In terms of Elliott Wave theory , it seems that USDCAD has managed to complete 5 main down waves and we can expect more up waves .
Also, we can see the Regular Divergence(RD+) between Consecutive Valleys .
I expect USDCAD to rise to at least 1.37860 CAD.

Strong NFP data on Friday reinforced USD ( TVC:DXY ) strength .

THE USD CAD PAIR USD/CAD 1H Chart – Busy with Levels but the Bias is Clear 📊✨
Multiple confluences pointing to bullish intent: trendline support, key demand zones, and clean higher lows. Despite the clutter, price is respecting structure. Watching for a clean break above recent highs to ride the buy-side liquidity sweep. Eyes on 1.38+ 📈
#ForexTrading #USDCAD #SmartMoney #TechnicalAnalysis"
Can 1.3633 Construct a Bottom?The USD/CAD exchange rate continues to maintain a (sideways) pattern, currently trading around 1.37. Although the US dollar is fundamentally supported by the boost from the US non-farm payroll data and the optimistic expectations of trade negotiations in major economies, the overall market sentiment remains cautious. The Canadian dollar is supported by the strengthening of crude oil prices, and the exchange rate trend presents a complex pattern of mixed long and short positions. In the short term, if the exchange rate can effectively break through 1.3800 and stabilize above this level, it will open up further upward space. The next targets may point to the middle track of Bollinger Bands at 1.3823 and the previous platform resistance area at 1.3900. However, if it is blocked again at the 1.3800 line and falls back, it will increase the market expectation of "making a new low after a technical rebound". At that time, the supports will focus on 1.3640 and the low point of 1.3633. If the latter is broken, it will open up the downward space to 1.3600 or even 1.3550.

USDCAD WILL DELIVER BY FIREThe USD/CAD trended lower in a volatile manner this week, declining 0.29% on a weekly basis, reflecting the relative resilience of the Canadian dollar supported by the Bank of Canada's (BoC) policy and economic data. The BoC maintained its interest rate at 2.75%, in line with market expectations. The BoC's concerns about Trump's tariff policies mirror the widespread anxieties among global central banks regarding the impact of trade wars. The central bank is likely to remain on hold in the short term to observe the effects of trade policies. If employment data turns out to be robust, the Canadian dollar may gain further support.

#USDCAD: 500+ Pips Big Buy Opportunity!Dear Traders
Hope you are doing great, we have a great buying opportunity on USDCAD, our first entry is in profit of 250+ pips, however, we expect price to grow steadily after reconfirming the same area. USDCAD tends to reconfirm the order block area many times before a big bull move. Good luck.
USDCAD Rebound from Key Support – Bullish Setup in PlayUSDCAD pair has reached a technical inflection point at key support around 1.3700, where it is attempting a rebound after several days of bearish momentum. With recent Canadian data showing underlying economic strain and the U.S. dollar reacting to rate expectations and tariff news, this area becomes crucial for the next directional move.
🔍 Technical Analysis
Support Level: Price has respected the horizontal support at 1.3700–1.3685, forming a possible double-bottom structure on the 4H chart.
Bullish Reversal Zone: The latest candle shows a strong rejection wick at the support zone, suggesting bullish interest. The structure aligns with a classic bullish reversal pattern.
Target Zones:
First TP: 1.3849 (previous high / supply zone).
Second TP: 1.3860–1.3870 (Fibonacci extension + minor resistance).
Invalidation (SL): Below 1.3685, further downside may open to 1.3632.
🧠 Fundamental Context
U.S. Side:
GDP and NFP data have recently come out mixed, reducing the immediate pressure on the Fed to hike rates further.
Tariff uncertainty and appeal plans by the Trump administration are increasing near-term USD volatility.
US bond yields are firming again, giving the dollar mild support.
Canada Side:
Canadian Q1 GDP disappointed at 0.1%, lower than expected.
BoC is likely to hold rates steady, but the economy shows weak business investment and softening consumption growth.
Crude oil, Canada’s key export, is still under pressure, slightly weakening CAD.
✅ Conclusion
This setup favors a short-term long on USDCAD from current levels, targeting the upper resistance zone at 1.3849–1.3860. A break and close above 1.3870 could extend toward 1.3900. However, caution should be exercised with upcoming U.S. labor and trade data that may fuel volatility.
USDCAD Price Rebounding from Key Support as CAD WeakensUSDCAD is showing signs of a potential reversal from key support around the 1.3700–1.3685 zone. The pair had been declining steadily but recent weakness in the Canadian Dollar — driven by soft economic data and oil market uncertainty — is starting to shift momentum back in favor of the U.S. Dollar. As long as support holds, there is room for a bullish continuation toward 1.3860 or higher in the near term.
Technical Analysis (4H Chart)
Trend Structure: After a strong impulsive drop earlier in May, USDCAD formed a rounded bottom near 1.3685, followed by a corrective bounce. The recent retracement toward the support area is forming a potential higher low setup.
Support Zone:
Primary Support: 1.3700–1.3685
This is a clean structure zone and previous demand level. Price tested this area on May 24–25 and rebounded sharply.
Resistance Zone:
Short-Term Target: 1.3849–1.3860
This is the next major horizontal resistance, and aligns with previous price congestion before the latest decline.
Price Projection:
The chart suggests a bullish wave may develop from the support zone, targeting the 1.3860 level. If broken, a further move toward 1.3920 (May swing high) is possible.
Invalidation Level:
A daily close below 1.3680 would negate the bullish bias and signal a deeper correction or trend continuation lower.
Fundamental Analysis
U.S. Dollar (USD) Drivers:
Q1 GDP second estimate shows steady but modest growth.
Consumer Confidence fell recently, capping upside for the USD short term.
The Fed remains cautious, signaling that inflation risks persist — keeping interest rates elevated, which supports USD.
U.S. Treasury yields have been stable to slightly higher, also helping support the dollar.
Canadian Dollar (CAD) Drivers:
Canada's balance of payments posted a larger-than-expected deficit in Q1 — a negative for CAD.
Oil prices, which heavily influence CAD, have been under pressure from global demand uncertainty.
Domestic demand is softening: flat retail sales and weak trade balance data reduce CAD appeal.
Bank of Canada is showing signs of policy caution, especially as inflation slows faster than in the U.S.
Conclusion
Outlook: Short-term bullish
USDCAD is likely to bounce from the 1.3700–1.3685 zone and retest 1.3849–1.3860 if CAD weakness continues.
Trade Plan (if trading):
Buy Zone: 1.3700–1.3685
Target: 1.3860
Stop Loss: Below 1.3680 (structure break)
The pair is fundamentally supported by CAD weakness and technically primed for a rebound — but confirmation from price action near support is critical.
Cautious Bulls Meet Trendline Test: USD/CAD Eyes FOMC CatalystCMCMARKETS:USDCAD OANDA:USDCAD USD/CAD extended its recovery for the third day, trading near 1.3833 on modest USD strength following upbeat U.S. data. However, fiscal worries and expectations of Fed rate cuts in 2025 may limit upside momentum. Traders are cautious ahead of the FOMC Minutes and U.S. PCE/GDP data, while firmer Canadian inflation and oil prices could support the CAD.
Technically, the pair remains within a broad downward channel and is now approaching key resistance at 1.3856, aligned with the descending trendline. A clear rejection here could spark a bearish continuation toward 1.3711 support. A breakout above 1.3937 would invalidate the bearish channel and suggest trend reversal.
Resistance : 1.3856 , 1.3937
Support : 1.3711 , 1.3809

USDCAD TechnicalsThe pair attempting a recovery following a sharp bearish decline. After a significant selloff, price found strong support in the 1.38300–1.38440 zone, where multiple rejections indicate the presence of demand. This area has now acted as a base for a bullish reaction, confirmed by increasing bullish volume on the most recent candles.
The recovery is now pushing back toward a previously broken structure zone around 1.38770–1.38800, which is expected to act as resistance. This is a critical level to watch, as it previously marked a breakdown point. If price manages to push above and hold, it could signal a reversal or at least a corrective rally within the broader downtrend.
Momentum indicators are showing early signs of recovery. The RSI has climbed to around 46, rebounding from a low and crossing its moving average. While it remains below the neutral 50 level—still slightly favoring sellers—the upward momentum is strengthening. This supports the current short-term bullish movement, especially if price remains above the 1.3840 handle.
The short-term trend is shifting toward bullish, supported by a potential higher low structure forming after the recent dip. A clean break and hold above 1.3880 could open the door for a move toward the psychological round number at 1.3900 and potentially higher toward 1.3920–1.3940.
However, if the price fails to hold above 1.3840 and breaks back into the support box with bearish volume, the recovery thesis would be invalidated, suggesting a potential revisit of the 1.3820 level and lower.
In summary, the chart suggests a cautious bullish bias with near-term upside potential, contingent on maintaining support above the demand zone and breaking through the resistance around 1.3880 with momentum.
USDCAD Consolidation Within Bullish Flag – Targets 1.4130USDCAD is consolidating inside a descending flag structure following a strong impulsive rally earlier in May. The current pullback is orderly and corrective, indicating potential for continuation higher. If price breaks above 1.3960, this flag breakout could extend toward 1.4130 and possibly 1.4225. With CAD weakening on soft oil prices and USD regaining strength from yield-driven flows, the bias remains bullish while price stays above 1.3870.
🔍 Technical Analysis
Pattern: Bullish flag forming after a strong rally
Support Zone: 1.3870–1.3900 → base of flag
Resistance/Breakout Zone: 1.3960–1.3980 → upper flag line
Structure:
Higher lows holding firm
Fib confluence near 1.3933 (23.6% retracement)
Target Levels:
1.4130 – 50% fib level + previous structure resistance
1.4225 – 61.8% fib zone from March–April high
📈 Bias: Bullish continuation on breakout
🌍 Fundamental Context
🇺🇸 U.S. Dollar (USD)
Supported by:
Higher bond yields
Fed expected to hold rates higher for longer
Safe-haven inflows post-Moody’s downgrade fading
USD Index recovering broadly across majors
🇨🇦 Canadian Dollar (CAD)
Oil prices softening due to global demand concerns (China slowdown, US inventories)
BoC likely done hiking — no fresh bullish catalysts
CAD correlation with crude oil adds downside risk if energy markets weaken further
🎯 Trade Plan
Entry: Break and close above 1.3960
Stop Loss: Below 1.3870 (flag support zone)
Targets:
TP1: 1.4130 (structure resistance + fib level)
TP2: 1.4225 (swing high + golden ratio)
⚠️ Risk Factors to Watch
If USD sentiment shifts (e.g., dovish Fed speaker) → breakout may fail
Crude oil rebound would support CAD and cap USD/CAD upside
False breakouts common near 1.3960 — wait for confirmation (strong candle close)
🧭 Conclusion
USD/CAD remains in a bullish consolidation phase with a clear continuation setup. A break above 1.3960 would confirm a flag breakout targeting 1.4130 and 1.4225. With the macro backdrop favoring the USD and energy-linked CAD weakening, this setup offers clean structure and potential for follow-through.
USDCAD Is Bullish! Long!The USD/CAD exchange rate consolidated near 1.3980 during the European trading session, after the Canadian dollar (CAD) came under pressure due to falling crude oil prices, enabling the pair to recover earlier losses. Given that Canada is the largest crude oil exporter to the U.S., declining oil prices typically dampen CAD sentiment.
USD/CAD is displaying a complex technical trend. On the daily chart, the price is currently consolidating around the 1.3980 level. The pair has rebounded from a recent low of 1.3749 and is now attempting to break through the key psychological barrier of 1.4000. If it can surpass both the 1.4000 psychological level and the 1.4050 resistance, further upside toward 1.4150 could be possible. On the downside, key support lies at 1.3890 (the lower edge of the recent consolidation range) and 1.3749 (the recent low).

USDCAD Analysis: Three Bounce ScenariosHello traders!
USDCAD is offering three trading scenarios on the daily timeframe.
The first scenario suggests the pair may react bullishly from the currently approached zone, setting up a bounce opportunity that could drive price higher toward the 1.41600 area.
The second scenario anticipates a bounce toward the 1.37586 region, where a mean reversion setup may come into play (if buyers step in and price action confirms bullish intent near that support).
The third scenario anticipates a bounce toward the 1.34150 region, where a mean reversion setup may come into play (if buyers step in and price action confirms bullish intent near that support).
Discretionary Trading: Where Experience Becomes the Edge
Discretionary trading is all about making decisions based on what you see, what you feel, and what you've learned through experience. Unlike systematic strategies that rely on fixed rules or algorithms, discretionary traders use their judgment to read the market in real time. It's a skill that can't be rushed, because it's built on screen time, pattern recognition, and the ability to stay calm under pressure.
There's no shortcut here. You need to see enough market conditions, wins, and losses to build that intuition—the kind that tells you when to pull the trigger or sit on your hands. Charts might look the same, but context changes everything, and that's something only experience can teach you.
At the end of the day, discretionary trading is an art, refined over time, sharpened through mistakes, and driven by instinct. It's not for everyone, but for those who've put in the work, it can be a powerful way to trade.
Canadians Are DustedEssentially they have given their nation to communism and will suffer the consequences of poor economic performance especially when compared to the US. Over the long term CAD has only gotten weaker, and if you go back to 2007-2008 you see a massive dollar rally.
Due to future economic turmoil I see again the dollar outperforming similar to 07-08 and making new all time highs. We have already seen a retracement of all the gains USD made against CAD this year, in my opinion was expedited due to Trumps tariff tweets, now we shall begin the trend towards new highs.
While that is the macro view, my short term trade is that USD will see buys to 1.40. Only at that level is the potential for further downside possible. But till then we will see price move towards 1.40 after a retracement to 1.383
Note my chart is inverted
Just to be clear, first we will see shorts to 1.383, then we will see buys to 1.40. So a retracement then a continuation of the bullish dollar.
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+.
Thu 8th May 2025 USD/CAD Daily Forex Chart Buy SetupGood morning fellow traders. On my Daily Forex charts using the High Probability & Divergence trading methods from my books, I have identified a new trade setup this morning. As usual, you can read my notes on the chart for my thoughts on this setup. The trade being a USD/CAD Buy. Enjoy the day all. Cheers. Jim
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.
