USDCAD Tests Resistance As Shrugs Off Overbought Conditions

CANADA
  • USDCAD tests resistance at last week’s high of 1.3575, after which lies a potential run to a key resistance at 1.3655 (May 26 high).
  • The pair has been in overbought territory on a 14-day RSI basis since Aug 15, for its first time since March but also now for its longest period since Sep’22 and before that Mar 2020.
  • A combination of broad USD strength but crude falling further sees CAD towards the middle of the G10 FX pack on the day, ahead of CAD retail sales for one of the last higher tier releases before the Sep 6 BoC.
