FxWirePro: USD/CAD loses momentum, but reversal is likely

 

  • The USD/CAD pair declined sharply in US session hitting as low as 1.3834 after oil  prices jumped as much as 5 percent on Wednesday after investors broadly sold off U.S. dollar after weak ISM non-Manufacturing PMI data. Despite weekly data showing a surprisingly large rise in crude oil inventories, the oil-correlated canadian dollar rose against US dollar due to high volatility in the market ahead of Fridays non- farm payrolls.

  • However, further decline towards lower levels should be limited as pair faces strong support at 1.3800 levels Technically stochastic is in oversold levels, RSI Indicator is slowly turning up at 37.

  • To the upside, the strong resistance can be seen at 1.4000, a break above will take the pair towards next resistance level at 1.4130.

  • To the downside immediate support can be seen at 1.3800 levels, a break below will open the door towards next level at 1.3765.
