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.

NZDCAD – Range Play, Resistance RetestNZDCAD – Consolidation Within Neutral Range as Market Eyes Fed Developments
The NZDCAD currency pair is currently exhibiting strength within the confines of a well-defined neutral trading range. This stabilization is largely underpinned by the recent corrective pullback in the U.S. dollar, which has provided short-term support for the New Zealand dollar. However, questions remain about the sustainability of this momentum, especially with significant macroeconomic events looming on the horizon — most notably, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting and the subsequent speech by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.
At present, NZDCAD is trading within a localized range, and price action is gravitating toward the key liquidity zone around the 0.8317 level. This area has become a focal point for market participants, as it represents a notable level of interest where prior price reactions have occurred. The pullback in the U.S. dollar has temporarily shifted sentiment in favor of the NZD, but this may prove short-lived depending on upcoming policy signals from the Federal Reserve.
From a technical standpoint, the currency pair is constrained between strong resistance at 0.83175 and a cluster of support levels located at 0.82644, 0.8235, and 0.8225. The proximity of these levels reinforces the neutral bias and increases the likelihood of short-term whipsaws or potential false breakouts. Traders should exercise caution in positioning aggressively within this zone, particularly ahead of fundamental catalysts that could swiftly reshape market dynamics.
Market sentiment is increasingly focused on the tone and direction of Fed policy. Should the FOMC or Chair Powell deliver signals that point toward a more hawkish policy trajectory — whether through immediate action or forward guidance — the U.S. dollar could regain strength rapidly. This would likely exert downward pressure on NZDCAD, potentially driving the pair back toward the lower bounds of its trading range or beyond.
Conversely, any dovish surprises or indications of policy patience could extend the current reprieve for the NZD, enabling a continued challenge of the upper resistance area. However, given prevailing expectations for a firm stance by the Fed amid ongoing inflationary concerns, the market is pricing in a scenario where dollar strength could reassert itself — possibly leading to a reversal in NZDCAD’s recent strength.
In conclusion, while NZDCAD remains technically range-bound for now, the landscape is ripe for volatility. The confluence of resistance near 0.8317 and heightened anticipation around Fed-related news points to a critical juncture for this pair. Traders should monitor price action closely, remain aware of potential false breakouts, and align short-term strategies with the broader macro narrative that will emerge following the FOMC decision and Powell’s speech.
GbpAud now the “buyers” are within!Good day traders, we back with GBPAUD but before I go into it. Last week I took loss because I was buying GBPAUD but I lately found out I was way too early and my narrative has not changed at all.
1D- Daily TF we have a bearish structure and we know that once price shifts structure we want price to retest Atleast till the 0.705 of the OTE fib level to later continue to the Sellside liquidity.
4H- On this respective TF we are also in a bearish structure but I believe not for long because on the lower TF the shift higher has materialised, giving confirmation that we can start positioning ourselves for the up movement.
1H- ICT has a entry model(F.PFVG), on the hourly we saw prices giving back all of yesterday’s gains till it reach that level of first presented FVG and that’s what we gonna use as the level of interest.

Usdcad PWL?!Good day traders, we back with USDCAD on the 4h TF. Well for this setup I am looking for price to take out out previous week low, previous week we had a candle stick pattern recognition after we saw price move lower but failing to close lower told a different story that price is not yet ready to start moving higher which honestly speaking was my bias last week. For the rest of the day I believe we can expect lower prices to close the day.

Dollar Bounce to 103 Incoming or Straight to 96?Will the Dollar Keep Tumbling, or Are We About to Bounce Back to 103 in May?
Checking out the monthly charts, April finally delivered a close under that critical 100 level, breaking a floor that held firm for years:
Zooming into the weekly chart, we’ve retraced back to test the 100 level from below. It’s now acting as resistance—so, is another big drop coming?
Long term, my bias is clear: the dollar looks set to keep sliding lower after breaking the crucial 100 mark. But if we flip to the daily charts, we can clearly see signs of a short-term bounce brewing. It looks like price might want to squeeze back inside the range, aiming for that juicy sell zone around the 103 mark—the very origin of the leg down that initially broke 100:
This 103 area is a prime spot for short-term bulls, and an even better opportunity to start loading up on shorts for a move down towards the Monthly buy zone around 96.
Personally, I won’t trade USDX directly to the upside—I'll instead use this analysis to play setups on pairs like EURUSD and AUDUSD, as they're approaching key resistance areas right now.
My game plan: wait patiently for price to reach around 103, then start hunting for sell signals. But first, we’ll need a solid daily close back above 100, something I think we could see happen this week.
Don’t forget—we’ve got the Fed’s interest rate decision coming up, which might trigger some volatility. We could easily rally up to 103 ahead of the decision and then see a sell-off afterward. Of course, if the Fed throws us a curveball, the dollar might never get back above 100, and just continue dropping straight away.
Right now, the 100 level is crucial—so watch closely.

EURUSD | Head‑&‑Shoulders on the Brink – Bears Eye 1.1250📉 Trade Thesis
A textbook Head‑and‑Shoulders has completed on the 30‑min EURUSD chart. Price is now testing the rising neckline drawn from mid‑April swing lows. A clean close and retest beneath that trendline opens room toward the next demand shelf and the lower boundary of the broader ascending channel.
🎯 Execution Plan
Entry: wait for a decisive candle close below the neckline, then look to short on a minor pull‑back into that broken support.
Stop: just above the right‑shoulder high to keep risk tight.
Target: the measured‑move objective sits near the channel median/support cluster highlighted on the chart; scale out as price approaches that zone.
🧩 Confluence Factors
Momentum loss: RSI made a lower peak on the “head” versus the prior thrust, signalling fading upside energy.
Event risk: upcoming NFP/ISM releases may fuel USD volatility, providing the catalyst for a break.
Structure: the right shoulder’s supply shelf has capped every rally since late April, reinforcing bearish pressure.
⚠️ Risk Management
Macro data can produce whipsaws—size positions accordingly and stick to the plan. Move stops to breakeven once price pushes convincingly away from the neckline.
For educational purposes only. Trade your own strategy & manage risk.
EURUSD directional bias: BuyPrice has closed above a key 4h resistance level. Based on the higher timeframe direction, I am expecting price to continue upwards to the recent high (1.5568).
Please be aware that we have a USD Interest Rate release on Wednesday which could cause a lot of volatility in the market. Keep this in mind if you decide to trade this direction.
XAU/USD - Channel Breakout (05.05.2025)The XAU/USD pair on the M30 timeframe presents a Potential Buying Opportunity due to a recent Formation of a Channel Breakout Pattern. This suggests a shift in momentum towards the upside and a higher likelihood of further advances in the coming hours.

Entry: Consider Entering A Long Position around Trendline Of The Pattern.
Target Levels:
1st Resistance – 3321

EURUSD Channel Up favors buying but keep an eye on this.The EURUSD pair has been trading within a Channel Up pattern since the February 28 Low and its current Bearish Leg almost reached the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement level. That is where the previous Bearish Leg made a Higher Low (March 27) and rebounded.
This keeps for now the bullish trend intact and it will remain so for as long as the price remains within the Channel Up. The short-term Target is the -0.236 Fib extension at 1.17500. If on the other hand it breaks below the Channel Up, be ready to take the small loss and sell towards the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line) at 1.08500, which is the level that supported the market on that previous March 27 Low.
