DOLLAR-CANADA
DOLLAR-CANADA: USD/CAD has climbed 15 pips overnight and last deals at C$1.3293,
as CAD was pressured by softer WTI, which breached the $52 level several times.
WTI declined on the back of an increase in U.S. drilling activity, as well as a
refinery fire in Illinois, which resulted in the shutdown of a major
distillation unit. 
- Bulls look for a break above the psychological C$1.3300 level before shifting
focus to the upper 1.0% 10-DMA envelope & Friday's peak at C$1.3329. Meanwhile,
bears eye the 21-DMA at C$1.3245, ahead of C$1.3233, where the rate bottomed
Friday. 
- Canadian econ calendar is rather light this week, with domestic m'fing sales &
housing price index due to hit on Thursday.
