DOLLAR-CANADA
DOLLAR-CANADA: USD/CAD advanced a dozen pips overnight and last deals at
C$1.3320, as WTI extended yesterday's decline amidst worries re: the Sino-U.S.
trade war and health of the global economy/demand for crude. 
- Also worth mentioning that Canadian crude's discount to WTI expanded, as
Wednesday's shutdown of two key pipelines has dragged on, amidst the ongoing
investigation into a recent leak in Missouri. 
- Bulls look for a break above the 55-DMA/50-DMA at C$1.3348/55, which would
bring the Jan 24 high of C$1.3375 into play. Meanwhile, bears need a fall back
below yesterday's peak at C$1.3317, before attempting a run at the 21-DMA at
C$1.3246. 
- Canadian focus today turns to domestic labour mkt data & housing starts
figures.
