AUDCAD trade ideas
NICE FVG he Canadian dollar hit a 4-1/2-year low against its U.S. counterpart on Friday as investors worried about a potential trade war between the United States and Canada and dialed back bets on Federal Reserve interest rate cuts in 2025.
The loonie was trading 0.1% lower at 1.4230 per U.S. dollar, or 70.27 U.S. cents, after touching its weakest intraday level since April 2020 at 1.4244.
For the week, the currency was down 0.5%, its third straight weekly decline.
Recent reports that Canada was considering tit-for-tat retaliatory tariffs if U.S. President-elect Donald Trump carries out his threat to tax Canadian imports have given traders another reason to bet against the loonie, said Amo Sahota, director at Klarity FX in San Francisco.
"It could be a long wait until the U.S. presidential inauguration to see how determined Trump is to begin his second term with a full trade war," Sahota said.

154R AUDCADExpecting CAD weakness.
The weekly structure is bullish on AUDCAD so I am therefore expecting a continuation up after a multi-year long consolidation.
The trade on the lower timeframe targets an entry at an imbalance below some equal lows which could be an area where the market is drawn towards first.
AUD/CAD TRADE UPDATE This is what we wanted. Now it’s time to be patient and wait for the signals on the 30-minute chart. Keep in mind that there is major news coming out at 9:45 AM related to AUD pairs. A trade is most likely not going to happen today, which is fine. Remember, it's about high-quality trades and not about being in the market every single day. Focus on high-probability and high-quality trades only. If you preserve your capital and stay disciplined, you will succeed.
AUDCAD-SELL strategy 6-hourly chart GANN SQThe pair did not manage to hold above 0.9060 as I initially believed it would. Now we are solid below that, and there is ample room towards 0.8913. The pair is not oversold as yet and negative stochastic, MACD etc does not bode well short-term.
The tonight's decision BOC may provide strength to the CAD, it feels.

AUDCAD 3H ShortThe price has broken below the Ichimoku cloud following a period of consolidation, signaling a confirmed downside move. Currently, it is trading near the retest levels of the Tenkan-sen, Kijun-sen, and the cloud. A short position will be initiated during the Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen crossover, or after a successful retest.The trade is structured with a minimum risk-reward ratio (RRR) of 1:2, setting the stop-loss above the Kijun-sen at the time of the crossover and above the Ichimoku cloud for added safety.
AUDCAD TRADE UPDATEAUDCAD has shown a similar price movement, experiencing a significant upward reaction but failing to break through both the weekly and daily Area of Interest (AOI). The price has since declined. What we need now is a sign of strength (SOS) on the 4-hour timeframe, along with a confirmation pullback at the daily AOI to enter this trade. The price action is developing; let's wait for the opportunity to present itself.
#AUDCAD 4HAUDCAD 4-Hour Analysis
The AUDCAD pair has broken above a key trendline on the 4-hour chart, signaling a potential shift in momentum to the upside. Additionally, the presence of a buy engulfing candlestick in the breakout area reinforces the bullish outlook. This combination of technical signals presents a strong opportunity for a buy position.
