With no Canadian economic data to drive moves this week, CAD is beholden to external forces, such as oil.
Yesterday's rally in oil has helped underpin CAD, putting more distance between USD/CAD and its 100dma (at 1.2398 today).
As the trend of this pair perceived to have a non direction trend we recommend executing below strategy.

The combined position should have delta close to zero with theta +ve theta value as we have 2 shorts on either side.
