USDCAD Just Shy Of Newly Found Resistance

CANADA
  • A tick higher in ESA sees USDCAD pull back from another look at 1.33 to 1.3287, having earlier touched a session high of 1.3308 before softening on USDCAD moves.
  • CAD is one of the main underperformers following yesterday’s breach of 1.3224, quickly clearing 1.3300 (Nov 4, 2020 high) today.
  • It remains to be seen if the round 1.33 offers strong resistance ahead of the FOMC, otherwise it could open 1.3338 (50% retrace of 2020-21 bear cycle), with no fresh impetus coming from oil today or the front end yield differential since the post-US CPI adjustment lower.
