Recovery off week low, higher lows · RSI 55 · price 1.42032

Range-bound, grinding back toward mid-range.

USDCAD spiked to the 1.41498 week low on Thursday's soft US NFP shock (57K vs 110K f/c) before buyers stepped in twice around 1.4159, carving out a rounded bottom and a run of higher lows into Friday's thin holiday session. Price has recovered to the 1.42063 range top, which has capped the last few hours, while sitting above both EMA(20) and EMA(50) with RSI(14) mid-range. The broader 1.4150–1.4248 range built this week still frames the picture.

Support: 1.4177, 1.4159, 1.41498

Resistance: 1.42063, 1.4235, 1.4248

Sweep low then higher lows into 1.42.

USDCAD was knocked off the 1.4248 15-month high on Thursday's soft 57K US NFP print, with one bar sweeping down to 1.41498 before demand stepped in. Price has since carved higher lows back to 1.42, now consolidating right on the 61.8% retracement of that week's drop and holding above EMA20/50. RSI(14) has cycled back to the mid-50s as the recovery matures.

Consolidation above NFP low, capped below 1.4205.

USDCAD sold off from the 1.4248 15-month high into Thursday's NY session, with the sharp 1.4249→1.4150 flush landing on the soft 57K US NFP print that trimmed Fed hike bets. Price has since recovered into a tight 1.4165–1.4205 range and now sits mid-EMA cluster near 1.4199, RSI(14) cycling around neutral. The 1.4205 range top has capped the bounce while the 1.4150 NFP low remains the floor.

Support: 1.4165, 1.4150

Recovery base after week-low sweep, ranging low-1.4190s.

The soft 57K US NFP print Thursday knocked USD/CAD off its ~1.4248 15-month high, with the sharp NY-session drop to 1.4150 marking the week low. Price has since carved a rounded base back into the low 1.4190s and is now consolidating just above EMA20, with RSI(14) recovered to a neutral ~52. Overhead supply at 1.4204 has capped the bounce while demand steps in on dips toward 1.4165.

Grinding higher-lows off Thursday's spike low.

USDCAD backed off the 1.4247 week high made mid-week and sold off sharply into Thursday's 57K US NFP miss, spiking to a 1.41498 week low before demand stepped in. Price has since ground higher-lows back to the 1.42 pivot and is now consolidating just under the 1.4206 range top, holding above EMA20 and EMA50. Soft crude on US-Iran de-escalation has capped the CAD-side of the recovery, keeping the move two-way.

Support: 1.4185, 1.4159, 1.41498

Higher lows since NFP low, capped under 1.4205.

USDCAD sold off sharply into Thursday's NY session, printing 1.41498 as the 57K NFP miss knocked the USD, before grinding back to the 1.42 handle. Price has built a series of higher lows off that base and now sits on EMA20/EMA50 with RSI(14) around 55. The 1.4205 range top has capped the recovery, keeping this a two-way tug-of-war with soft oil offsetting the weaker dollar.

Double-bottom base, higher lows since NFP.

USDCAD collapsed from the 1.4247 week high to 1.41498 on Thursday's soft US NFP (57K vs 110K), then carved a double bottom into 1.415-1.416 as the dollar stayed on the back foot. Price has since ground back above EMA20 to 1.4200, but the 1.4206 recovery high is capping the bounce, with falling oil keeping the recovery a tug-of-war. RSI(14) sits mid-range near 58 after basing at the lows.

Recovery within weekly downshift, momentum flattening · RSI 54 · price 1.42015

Basing above NFP low after sweep, capped below 1.4206.

USDCAD spiked to the week high 1.4247 midweek before Thursday's NFP miss (57K vs 110K) drove a single-bar sweep down to 1.4150, tagging the NFP low. Price has since ground higher into thin holiday liquidity, retracing roughly half the drop and holding above the EMA20 near 1.4185, but attempts stall below the 1.4206 session high. Broad USD softness supports the bounce while weak oil and a patient BoC cap CAD, keeping the recovery contained.

Lower highs into 1.4150 base, bouncing.

USDCAD sold off through the week from Tuesday's 1.4247 high, with the sharp Thursday leg down to 1.4150 tied to the soft US NFP (57K vs 110K) that trimmed Fed hike bets. Price has since ground back above EMA20 into the 1.42 round area, RSI(14) recovering near 54 after basing twice around 1.4150. The 1.4205 recent high now caps the bounce.

Support: 1.4185, 1.4150

Higher-lows base after NFP flush, testing weekly open.

USDCAD opened Monday near 1.4202 and pushed to a 1.4247 week high before Thursday's NFP miss (57K vs 110K) drove a sharp drop into the 1.41498 week low. Price has since carved higher-lows through the NY session and recovered to retest the weekly open at 1.42017, reclaiming EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI(14) cycling back through 50. Soft oil on US-Iran de-escalation has kept the CAD-side recovery contained.

Range break lower, higher lows since NFP low.

USDCAD sold off from the 1.4247 weekly high on Thursday's NFP miss (57K vs 110K), the sharpest H1 drop of the week as the dovish USD repricing bit. Price has since ground back to the 50% retrace near 1.4200, retesting the broken 1.42 consolidation floor from below. RSI(14) sits mid-50s with price holding above EMA20 through the recovery, though soft oil is capping CAD's side of the move.

Sharp reversal from week high, now mid-range recovery.

Recovering after NFP-driven drop · RSI 57 · price 1.41986

Lower high, then higher lows off Thursday spike low.

USDCAD opened Monday near 1.4210 and climbed to a 1.4247 week high into Wednesday before Thursday's NFP miss (57K vs 110K) drove a sharp break down to 1.4150. Since that spike low the pair has carved higher lows and reclaimed EMA20, now grinding back toward the 1.4200 psych level — roughly the 50% retracement of the NFP drop.

USDCAD sold off from Wednesday's 1.4247 week high to a 1.4150 post-NFP low as the soft US jobs report (57K) undercut the dollar. Price has since based near the 1.4159 swing low and recovered back through EMA20, now stalling at the 50% retracement of that drop around 1.4199. Session high at 1.4204 and the 1.4218 prior high cap the rebound.

Downtrend easing, recovering from lows · RSI 59 · price 1.42017

Lower highs off 1.4248, higher low carved at 1.4159.

The dominant move this week was Thursday's NFP-miss (57K vs 110K) slide that dumped USDCAD from the 1.4248 15-month high down to 1.41498. Price has since rounded off the lows on a soft-USD tone, printing a higher low at 1.4159 and clawing back to the weekly open at 1.42091, with RSI(14) recovered near 59 and price reclaiming EMA20. The 1.42091 weekly open now caps the retrace attempt.

Downtrend, recovery attempt · RSI 56 · price 1.41967

Post-NFP break, higher lows since.

The week held a tight 1.4180–1.4248 range into Friday before the soft US NFP print (57K vs 110K) drove a sharp range break, spiking to a 1.41498 low as the dollar was sold broadly. Price has since carved higher lows off that low and is now grinding back above EMA20, retesting the 50% retrace near 1.41985 and the broken prior range from below. RSI(14) has recovered through the mid-50s as the recovery extends into thin holiday trade.

Downtrend, near-term recovery off lows · RSI 53 · price 1.41878

Post-NFP breakdown, consolidating with higher lows.

USDCAD rolled over after Thursday's soft US June NFP (57K vs 110K) knocked the dollar broadly, sending the pair through the 1.4200 range floor to 1.41498 during the NY session. Since then price has based near the lows and carved a sequence of higher lows into 1.41878, with RSI(14) recovering back toward the mid-50s and price reclaiming EMA20 while EMA50 still caps overhead. The recovery is corrective within this week's downtrend.

Basing after impulsive drop.

USDCAD topped at the 1.4247 15-month high early in the week before a sharp impulsive drop on Thursday's US June NFP miss (57K vs 110K), which knocked the pair to a 1.41498 spike low. Price has since based between 1.4159 and 1.4190, reclaiming EMA20 while EMA50 near 1.4195 still caps, with RSI recovering back toward the midline.

Price has since based, carving a higher swing low at 1.41592 and reclaiming the EMA20 around 1.4179 into today's session. RSI(14) has cycled back to neutral near 49 after the selloff, with the 1.4200 round level now capping the recovery.

Price broke the 1.4180 shelf on the payroll candle, printed a week low at 1.4159, and is now retesting the broken 1.4180 level from below with RSI(14) recovering toward 46.

Lower highs into consolidation near week lows.

USDCAD rolled off the 1.4247 week high after Thursday's soft US NFP print (57K vs 110K) undercut the dollar, with the impulse leg spiking to 1.41498 before basing. Since then price has consolidated in a tight 1.4159–1.4200 band through the holiday-thinned session, RSI(14) recovering toward the mid-40s and price pivoting around a flattening EMor20.
