23:02 UTC

Recovery off weekly lows, momentum up · RSI 68 · price 1.40779

Double-bottom base near 1.4000, higher lows since.

USDCAD spent most of the week grinding lower to a 1.4000 base as an oil-driven CAD bid capped the pair, then reversed hard through the latest NY session to a 1.40850 session high. The double bottom near 1.40036 broke out and price now sits above both EMAs with RSI(14) around 68. Prior resistance at 1.40650 has flipped to near-term support.

Support: 1.4065, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.4085

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back below 1.40650 questions the recovery and re-exposes the 1.4000 pivot
  • A close above 1.40850 extends the breakout toward 1.4130
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu and oil headlines remain the primary swing factor for CAD

23:02 UTC

Uptrend, recovering off lows · RSI 68 · price 1.40779

Higher lows off double bottom, testing week high.

USDCAD carved a double bottom near 1.4003 mid-week and has rallied through prior consolidation, now testing the session high at 1.4085 with price holding above EMA20 and EMA50. RSI(14) sits near 68, elevated but not yet stretched, as the recovery leans on a softening oil bid rather than domestic data. The pair remains pinned above the 1.4000 pivot after Canada's soft June CPI print failed to break lower.

Support: 1.4000, 1.40028, 1.4056

Resistance: 1.4085, 1.4130

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close below 1.4000 pivot would negate the double-bottom recovery
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu 12:30 UTC could reset the CAD read
  • Oil headlines remain the dominant CAD driver into next bars
  • Break above 1.4085 session high opens the path toward 1.4130

22:02 UTC

Uptrend, momentum strong · RSI 72 · price 1.40812

Recovery off monthly low, higher lows.

USDCAD spent the week pinned near the 1.4000 psychological/monthly-low pivot as oil-led CAD strength dominated, but the pair has since rebounded steadily through the NY session, clearing prior resistance around 1.4077 to print a session high at 1.40826. Higher lows have built since the 1.40028 base with RSI(14) now stretched near 72; price sits well above EMA20 and EMA50. The digest's rebound scenario off 1.4000 toward the 1.4130 pivot is playing out.

Support: 1.40504, 1.4004, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.40826, 1.4113

What it said to watch

  • Sustained hold above 1.40826 opens the path toward the 1.41130 pivot
  • Loss of the 1.40504 higher low would question the recovery structure
  • 1.40000 psych remains the line for the broader oil-led CAD theme
  • Canada Retail Sales (Thu) is the next CAD catalyst

22:02 UTC

Uptrend, momentum building · RSI 70 · price 1.40812

Double bottom, higher highs off 1.4004.

USDCAD opened this week near 1.4007 and has climbed steadily, with a double bottom at 1.4004 holding twice before the NY-session leg lifted price to a session high of 1.40836. Rising crude had pinned the pair around 1.4000 last week, but the recovery through the psych level and prior 1.4057 high has flipped short-term structure higher, price now sitting well above EMA(20) and EMA(50). RSI(14) near 70 reflects the extended push into fresh weekly highs.

Support: 1.4057, 1.4007, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.40836, 1.4113, 1.4130

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 1.40836 opens the path to the 1.4113 pivot
  • Loss of 1.4057 prior high would question the breakout and expose the weekly open at 1.4007
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu 12:30 UTC and US PMIs Fri could shift this read

21:03 UTC

Recovery off weekly low, momentum building · RSI 67 · price 1.40697

Double bottom near 1.4003, higher highs since.

USDCAD carved a double bottom near 1.4003 early this week after the soft Canada CPI print was largely absorbed, then climbed steadily through the NY session to 1.40717. Price holds above EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI(14) around 67, and the week's higher-low structure remains intact. The 1.40769 prior high is the immediate cap after the rally.

Support: 1.4045, 1.4018, 1.40028

Resistance: 1.40717, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 1.40769 opens the path toward the low-1.41s
  • Failure to hold 1.40450 threatens the week's higher-low structure
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu 12:30 UTC could reshape this read

21:03 UTC

Intraday uptrend off Monday low · RSI 68 · price 1.40697

Higher highs, higher lows since week low.

USDCAD carved a rounded bottom near 1.40028 and has climbed through the week, printing a fresh session high at 1.40717 into the NY session with RSI(14) pushing near 68. The bounce reversed the oil-driven CAD strength that had pinned the pair at the monthly low around 1.4000 after Canada's soft June CPI. Price now sits above EMA20 and EMA50, with the 1.40769 prior-week high the next hurdle overhead.

Support: 1.4039, 1.40065, 1.40028

Resistance: 1.40717, 1.40769, 1.4100

What it said to watch

  • Sustained trade above 1.40769 opens the path toward the 1.41000 round level
  • Loss of the 1.40390 higher low would break the rising sequence off the week low
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu 12:30 UTC is the next domestic catalyst for this read

20:02 UTC

Recovery off the base, momentum building · RSI 64 · price 1.40631

Week-long grind lower into 1.4000, now retracing higher.

USDCAD spent most of the week grinding lower on the oil-driven CAD bid, basing twice around 1.4004–1.4008 before the prior NY session drove a clean rebound back toward 1.4065. Price now trades above both EMA(20) and EMA(50) with RSI(14) cycling into the low-60s, having retraced roughly 80% of the week's decline from 1.40769. The 1.4000 psychological pivot held on repeated tests and remains the structural floor.

Support: 1.4035, 1.40036, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.40714, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • Sustained trade above 1.40714 week high opens the path back toward 1.40769
  • Failure to hold above the 1.4000 psych level reopens the week low at 1.40036
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu 23 Jul could shift the CAD read

20:02 UTC

Recovery off lows, momentum building · RSI 63 · price 1.40631

Double bottom near 1.4000, rally into prior-week range.

USDCAD carved a double bottom around 1.4000 psych after two weeks of oil-driven CAD strength, then rallied through the NY session to a session high of 1.40657. Price sits above EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI(14) cycling higher near 63; the week high at 1.40769 is the next cap. The soft Canadian CPI miss earlier did little incremental damage as the reaction is energy-led and the BoC pause is already priced.

Support: 1.4050, 1.40028, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.40657, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close above 1.40769 week high extends the recovery toward the prior-week range top
  • Failure to hold 1.40500 swing low reopens the 1.4000 psych zone
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu 12:30 UTC could shift this read

19:02 UTC

Recovery off weekly low, momentum up · RSI 62 · price 1.40568

Higher lows since the gap, back above EMAs.

USD/CAD sold off through early week to a 1.4003 weekly low, then recovered across the weekend gap and now trades back above EMA(20) into the NY session as CAD's oil-driven bid eased. Higher lows since the gap and RSI(14) near 62 mark the momentum shift, though 1.4066 — this week's recovery high — capped the latest push. A pullback low near 1.4048 is the first support on the way back up.

Support: 1.4048, 1.4003

Resistance: 1.4066, 1.4077

What it said to watch

  • H1 close below 1.4048 breaks the higher-low sequence off the weekly low
  • Reclaim of 1.4066 opens the path toward the 1.4077 prior high
  • Oil/Gulf headlines are CAD's primary driver and could shift this read

19:02 UTC

Recovery off lows, momentum up · RSI 63 · price 1.40568

Higher lows since Sunday open, testing swing high.

USDCAD carved a double bottom near the 1.4000 psych pivot after last week's oil-led selloff, then climbed steadily through the NY session from the Sunday open around 1.4006 with RSI cycling higher. Price now sits above both EMA20 and EMA50, but the 1.40657 swing high has capped the latest push. The soft Canadian CPI miss did little incremental damage as the CAD story remains driven by crude.

Support: 1.4000, 1.40028, 1.4039

Resistance: 1.40657, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 1.40657 swing high opens path toward the 1.40769 weekly high
  • Loss of the 1.4000 psych pivot reopens the weekly low
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu could shift this read

18:03 UTC

Downtrend this week, bouncing · RSI 63 · price 1.40557

Recovery off week low, higher lows.

USDCAD carved a base around 1.4003 through Monday's session after oil-led CAD strength drove the week's decline, then rallied through the NY session to reclaim 1.4050+. Price sits back above EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI(14) mid-60s; the session high at 1.40657 caps the recovery. Note the weekend gap down from Friday's 1.4017 close into Monday's 1.4009 open.

Support: 1.4030, 1.4003

Resistance: 1.40657, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 1.40657 opens the path back toward the 1.40769 week high
  • Failure to hold 1.40300 re-exposes the 1.40030 week low
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu could shift the CAD read

18:02 UTC

Bouncing off week lows, momentum building · RSI 63 · price 1.40557

Higher lows since gap, testing week high.

USDCAD carved a double bottom near 1.4004 either side of the weekend gap and has rallied steadily through the NY session, now pressing the week high at 1.4066. Price holds above EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI(14) cycling into the low-60s, reflecting the oil-led CAD strength earlier this week fading as the dollar keeps a firm bid. The 1.4000 psychological pivot capped downside; recovery structure intact while higher lows hold.

Support: 1.4030, 1.4004, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.4066, 1.4077

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close above 1.4066 week high opens the path to 1.4077 prior high
  • Failure to hold 1.4030 EMA20 threatens the higher-low sequence
  • Loss of 1.4004 week low re-exposes the 1.4000 psych pivot
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu 12:30 UTC could shift the CAD read

17:03 UTC

Recovering off weekly low, near-term up · RSI 62 · price 1.4056

Based near 1.4000, rebound into resistance.

USDCAD carved a base near 1.4003 (weekly low / round number) through the Asia and London sessions after soft Canadian CPI and oil-led CAD strength dragged the pair lower earlier in the week. Price then rallied through the NY session to a 1.4066 session high and is now consolidating around 1.4056, back above EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI in the low 60s. The 1.4066 session high has capped the current push.

Support: 1.4040, 1.4003

Resistance: 1.4066, 1.4077

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 1.4066 opens the path back to 1.4077 prior high
  • Failure to hold 1.4040 pullback low reopens the 1.4003 weekly low
  • US S&P Global PMIs Fri could materially shift this read

17:03 UTC

Recovering off week low, momentum up · RSI 63 · price 1.4056

Higher lows since basing at 1.4000.

USDCAD spent Mon-Wed grinding into a 1.4000 psych floor, with the week low at 1.4003 holding on repeated tests before buyers stepped in through the NY session and drove price ~65 pips to 1.4066. The recovery reclaimed EMA20 and EMA50, with RSI(14) pushing into the low-60s. Context stays CAD-firm on the oil rally and soft June CPI, so this bounce is unwinding a stretched move rather than reversing the weekly down-leg.

Support: 1.4035, 1.4003, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.4066, 1.4077

What it said to watch

  • Hold above 1.4035 EMA20 keeps the recovery structure intact
  • Close back below 1.4003/1.4000 reopens the week low
  • Break above 1.4066 session high exposes 1.4077 week high
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu and US PMIs Fri are the week's catalysts

16:02 UTC

Downtrend, corrective bounce underway · RSI 65 · price 1.40595

Recovery off weekly low near 1.4000.

USDCAD sold off through the week toward the 1.4000 psych level as an oil-led CAD bid and soft Canadian CPI weighed, bottoming twice near 1.40028 either side of the weekend gap. Since Monday's open the pair has recovered, reclaiming EMA(20) and EMA(50) and pushing into the 1.40657 session high in the NY session, with RSI(14) lifting back above 60. The double-bottom base held, but the 1.40769 week high still caps the corrective move.

Support: 1.4039, 1.40028, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.40657, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 1.40657 opens the path toward the 1.40769 week high
  • Failure to hold 1.40390 rising-lows support risks a retest of the 1.40028 weekly low
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu and S&P Global PMIs Fri could materially shift this read

16:02 UTC

Downtrend base, recovering · RSI 65 · price 1.40595

Double bottom off 1.4000, bounce.

Oil-led CAD strength dragged USDCAD down to the 1.4000 psych level earlier in the week, where a double bottom near 1.40028 held twice. The pair has since recovered through the NY session, breaking back above EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI(14) pushing into the mid-60s. Price now presses the 1.40657 session high after the softer June Canadian CPI failed to force fresh downside.

Support: 1.4026, 1.40028, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.40657, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • Close above 1.40657 opens the path to the 1.40769 week high
  • Sustained move back below 1.4000 psych re-exposes the weekly low
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu 12:30 UTC could shift the read

15:02 UTC

Downtrend base, recovery underway · RSI 64 · price 1.40563

Reclaimed EMAs off week lows near 1.4000.

USD/CAD slid from Monday's 1.40769 to a base near the 1.4000 psych handle before rebounding through the latest NY session, now at 1.40563 back above both EMAs. The pair carved twin lows near 1.4000 and has retraced most of the week's decline as an oil-led CAD bid faded into the bounce. Session high at 1.40582 is the immediate cap.

Support: 1.4018, 1.4000, 1.40036

Resistance: 1.40582, 1.4065, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • Sustained hold below 1.4000 psych would reopen the week low at 1.40036
  • H1 close above 1.40582 session high exposes 1.40650 and the 1.40769 week high
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu 12:30 UTC could shift this read

15:02 UTC

Weekly downtrend, corrective bounce · RSI 65 · price 1.40563

Double base near 1.4000, higher lows into NY.

USD/CAD held the 1.4000 psych level twice this week — after Friday's soft-open gap and again at Monday's 1.40028 low — before rallying through the NY session to test the 1.40582 session high. Price now trades above both EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI(14) near 65 after the recovery leg. The broader weekly tone stays soft on oil-led CAD strength, framing this as a corrective bounce back into the week's declining range.

Support: 1.4039, 1.4003, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.40582, 1.40726

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back below 1.4000 reopens the weekly-low test
  • Rejection at 1.40582 caps the NY bounce; a close above opens 1.40726
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu 12:30 UTC could shift the CAD read

14:02 UTC

Downtrend, corrective bounce off 1.4000 · RSI 59 · price 1.4042

Week's lows held, recovery underway.

USDCAD spent the week grinding lower from 1.4076 toward the 1.4000 psychological pivot as an oil-driven CAD bid and a soft June CPI kept the Loonie firm near one-month highs. The weekly low at 1.4000 has held twice, and price has since reclaimed EMA20 and EMA50 on a bounce into the NY session, tagging 1.4052 before easing back. RSI(14) has cycled up to the high-50s off the lows, matching the corrective tone.

Support: 1.4000, 1.3970

Resistance: 1.4052, 1.4076

What it said to watch

  • H1 close below 1.4000 confirms a lower-low toward the 1.3970 50-dma cluster
  • Reclaim of 1.4076 prior high negates the week's downtrend
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu could shift the CAD tone

14:02 UTC

Downtrend, recovering off week low · RSI 62 · price 1.4042

Lower highs into week low, corrective bounce.

USDCAD trended lower through the week to a one-month low near 1.4004 as the oil rally underpinned CAD and soft June CPI (2.8% vs 2.9%) kept the BoC pause priced. A recovery off the lows through the NY session has lifted price back above EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI cycling up toward 62. The 1.4052 session high has capped the bounce, while 1.4004 remains the pivot below.

Support: 1.4004, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.4052, 1.4077

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 1.4052 opens the path toward the 1.4077 week high
  • Failure to hold 1.4004 week low confirms a fresh lower-low
  • Canada Retail Sales Thu and US PMIs Fri could shift this read

13:03 UTC

Week downtrend, bouncing off 1.4000 · RSI 61 · price 1.40449

Recovery off week low, higher lows into NY.

USDCAD spent the week grinding lower from the 1.40769 week high, basing twice at the 1.4000 round number before a firm recovery into today's NY session that reclaimed EMA20 and EMA50. The leg up coincides with Canada CPI (12:30 UTC); price is pressing the 1.40517 session high after carving higher lows off the base. RSI(14) has cycled back near 61 to confirm the rebound momentum.

Support: 1.40036, 1.40182

Resistance: 1.40517, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • Loss of 1.40036 round number reopens the week-low base and lower-low structure
  • H1 close above 1.40517 session high exposes the 1.40769 week high
  • CAD CPI reaction still developing — could extend or unwind this bounce

13:03 UTC

Downtrend, correcting higher · RSI 63 · price 1.40449

Bounce off 1.4000 into fib resistance.

USDCAD sold off through the week toward the 1.4000 round number, printing a week low at 1.40028 before a weekend gap kept price pinned to the lows. Buyers stepped in on the retest of 1.4000 and price has retraced toward the 61.8% of the down move, tagging the session high at 1.40517 into the NY session with RSI(14) recovered near 63. The rebound coincides with Canada CPI at 12:30 GMT, the immediate swing factor cited in the CAD read.

Support: 1.40028, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.40517, 1.4065

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 1.40517 session high opens the path toward the 1.40650 prior high
  • Failure to hold the 1.4000 round number / 1.40028 week low exposes 1.3970
  • Canada CPI at 12:30 GMT could materially reset this read

12:02 UTC

Downtrend, bounce off pivot · RSI 53 · price 1.40339

Lower highs into 1.4000, holding above week low.

USD/CAD ground lower all week from the 1.40769 week high toward the 1.4000 psych pivot, tracking a soft-USD tone after last week's cool CPI and firm oil supporting CAD. Price found demand twice around 1.40028 — a shallow double bottom — and has recovered through EMA20/EMA50 into the London-NY window, RSI back near 53 after basing in the low 40s. The 1.4050 prior-high shelf caps the immediate recovery.

Support: 1.4000, 1.40028

Resistance: 1.4050, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • Canada CPI at 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read
  • H1 close below 1.4000 psych pivot confirms a lower-low toward the week low
  • Reclaim of 1.4050 prior high would neutralise the descending lower-highs

12:02 UTC

Downtrend, recovering off 1.4000 base · RSI 57 · price 1.40339

Lower highs into 1.4000 pivot, basing this session.

USDCAD trended lower through the week from Monday's 1.4074 open toward the 1.4000 psychological pivot, where demand stepped in twice to build a base near 1.4003. This session has recovered back above EMA(20) to 1.4034 with RSI(14) lifting through 55, though price still sits inside the week's descending lower-high sequence. Oil strength and priced-out BoC hikes are the CAD backdrop; Canada CPI is the immediate catalyst.

Support: 1.4003, 1.4015

Resistance: 1.4037, 1.4050

What it said to watch

  • Break below 1.4000 confirms continuation of the week's down move

  • Canada CPI 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read

11:02 UTC

Downtrend, momentum slowing · RSI 47 · price 1.40248

Lower highs into 1.4000 base.

USDCAD has ground lower all week from the 1.4114 open toward the 1.4000 psych pivot, with oil strength and priced-out BoC hikes keeping the loonie firm. Price bottomed twice around 1.4003 and has since reclaimed the EMA20, but the 1.4035 swing high and EMA50 still cap the recovery. RSI(14) is recovering off its lows near 47 as the descending sequence of lower highs stays intact.

Support: 1.4000, 1.4003

Resistance: 1.4035, 1.4076

What it said to watch

  • Canada CPI at 12:30 UTC is the nearest catalyst and can break the 1.4000 base either way
  • H1 close below 1.4000 confirms continuation of the downtrend toward fresh lows
  • Reclaim of 1.4035 swing high / EMA50 would neutralise the lower-highs structure

11:02 UTC

Downtrend, bouncing off 1.4000 · RSI 54 · price 1.40248

Lower highs into 1.4000, demand holding.

USDCAD ground lower all week from Monday's 1.4114 open toward the 1.4000 psych pivot, pressured by the ~12% oil rally supporting CAD and softer US CPI capping the dollar. The week low near 1.4003 held on repeated tests and price has since bounced to the 1.40346 day high, reclaiming EMA20. Series of lower highs into 1.4076 still frames the broader descending structure.

Support: 1.4000, 1.4003

Resistance: 1.40346, 1.4050, 1.4076

What it said to watch

  • Canada CPI at 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read
  • H1 close above 1.40346 opens the path to 1.4050
  • Failure to hold 1.4000 confirms a lower low

10:02 UTC

Downtrend, bounce off lows · RSI 56 · price 1.40296

Week-long decline into 1.4000, double bottom forming.

USDCAD ground lower all week from 1.4115 to the 1.4000 pivot, with CAD riding oil strength and priced-out BoC hikes. A double bottom near the 1.40036 week low held twice, and Monday's session has bounced back through EMA20 toward the 1.4050 pivot as RSI(14) recovers off oversold. The move remains a countertrend bounce inside the broader descending structure until 1.4050 gives way.

Support: 1.40036, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.4050, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • Hourly close back below 1.4000 confirms a lower low and negates the double bottom
  • Reclaim of the 1.4050 pivot opens the path toward the 1.40769 lower high

USDCAD has been grinding lower all week off Monday's 1.4115 high, driven by oil-supported CAD and a soft USD, and stalled into the 1.4000 psych area where demand has held twice. Price is now creeping back above EMA(20) toward the 1.40257 session high after basing above 1.40028. Canada CPI at 12:30 UTC is the immediate catalyst.

Lower highs, base building at 1.4000.

USDCAD has trended lower all week off Monday's 1.4115 high, printing successive lower highs into fresh lows near the 1.4000 psych level as firmer crude and pared CAD shorts weighed. Buyers stepped in twice around 1.4003-1.4005, and the pair has bounced back above EMA(20) into the early session with RSI(14) recovering to ~51 from the mid-30s. The 1.4000 floor has held so far, but price remains capped below the descending lower-highs line.
