USD/CAD Technical Analysis: May 26, 2017
The U.S. dollar against the Canadian dollar declined in the beginning of Thursday trading session. The OPEC announcement has been released saying the production cute has been extended for another nine months. Although this is already expected, the downtrend occurs because of the possibility for a sell-off in the oil market as reflected in the hourly chart.
A break higher than the 1.35 region would induce this pair to move higher reaching up to 1.36 handle. Yet, if an exhaustive candle is formed, the market would proceed to a sell-off. The next few sessions are relevant to determine what happens in the future o f this pair.
The OPEC was not as aggressive as expected but the production cut decision is in line with the market’s expectation. Long-term traders would see a buying opportunity to the current condition of the oil market. However, it is safer to wait for a longer rally for the day before doing so, Overall, the market is moving uptrend for long-term which has had a rough trading last week.
It may be best to wait on the sidelines for the next 1 to days before trading this pair. The Moving Averages were not doing well but there is a chance for loonies to soften in the long-term. The 1.36 level is a significant psychological level for long-term to put on hold long-term orders and traders should wait until the current trend has been settled before placing orders.
