Uptrend, pausing just above 1.4000 · RSI 56 · price 1.40072

V-reversal from the London low into a higher-high/higher-low chain; holding above the 1.4000 psych level.

CAD's oil-driven bid took USDCAD to a London low of 1.3950. Strong US data (JOLTS beat) then drove an NY reversal through the 1.3996 Asian range high and the 1.4000 psych. The late-NY swing low at 1.3989 held at the 38.2% fib of the London low-to-day high leg, and early Asia has printed a day high at 1.4014 with a micro low at 1.4004, as midterm results begin.

Support: 1.40035, 1.4000, 1.39886

Resistance: 1.40136

What it said to watch

  • US midterm Senate call overnight could materially shift this read; only a Democratic sweep is flagged as a real USD negative
  • M15 close back below the 1.4000 psych returns price to the old 1.3990–1.4000 cap
  • Failure to hold the 1.3989 swing low and 38.2% fib breaks the higher-low chain
  • Acceptance above the 1.4014 day high extends the higher-high sequence; a slip under the 1.4004 micro low points to a 1.4000 retest

23:32 UTC

Uptrend, extended above 1.4000 · RSI 59 · price 1.40096

HH/HL chain off 1.3950 low, pressing day high.

A steady HH/HL climb off the 1.3950 London low, backed by beats on US JOLTS and factory orders, carried USD/CAD through Tuesday's 1.3996 Asian high and the 1.4000 round number during NY hours. The first midterm results at 23:00 UTC drove a spike to a 1.4014 day high that partly faded. The 1.3996 rollover wick was thin-liquidity noise, and the 1.4004 higher low is intact as the Asia session opens.

Support: 1.4004, 1.4000, 1.3989

Resistance: 1.40136

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.4004 higher low and the 1.4000 round number would undo the NY breakout
  • Loss of 1.4000 exposes the 38.2% fib at 1.3989, which sits on the 18:00 UTC swing low
  • A clean break of the 1.4014 day high extends the HH chain
  • The Senate control call from overnight midterm results could materially shift this read

23:17 UTC

Uptrend, fresh session high · RSI 64 · price 1.40134

HH/HL chain from London low, 1.4000 cap broken.

Steady higher-low climb since the 1.39498 London low after the JOLTS beat firmed USD. NY pushed through the 1.3990–1.4000 cap, and early Asia session is printing a fresh session high at 1.40136 as US midterm results start landing. The 22:15 UTC rollover dip to 1.3996 was a thin-liquidity spike, and the 1.4000 round number has held since.

Support: 1.4000, 1.39886, 1.39498

Resistance: 1.40136

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back below the 1.4000 round number puts price back inside the old 1.3990–1.4000 cap
  • Loss of the 1.39886 swing low (38.2% of the London-NY leg) breaks the higher-low chain
  • Senate control call overnight could materially shift this read; a Democratic sweep is the main USD downside tail

23:02 UTC

Uptrend, pressing session high · RSI 61 · price 1.40113

Higher highs and higher lows since the 1.3950 London low; 1.4000 cap broken.

The NY rally off the 1.3950 London low, on strong US JOLTS and a firmer USD, cleared the 1.4000 round number that had capped the pair, and price sits at the 1.4012 session high in thin post-NY trade with RSI(14) near 61. A rollover-hour wick to 1.3996 was reclaimed straight away, and the 18:00 UTC swing low at 1.3989 lines up with the 38.2% retracement of the move.

Support: 1.4000, 1.39886

Resistance: 1.40115

What it said to watch

  • US midterm Senate results from 23:00 UTC could materially shift this read in Asia
  • Failure to hold the 1.4000 round number on a closing basis turns the breakout into a false break
  • Break of the 1.3989 swing low and 38.2% fib undoes the NY higher-low chain
  • Close above the 1.4012 session high extends the higher-high sequence into open space

Uptrend, grinding slowly into rollover · RSI 54 · price 1.40048

HH/HL chain from the London low, holding above 1.4000.

NY reversed the London drop to the 1.3950 London low. It reclaimed the Asian high near 1.3996 and broke the 1.3990–1.4000 cap to a day high at 1.4012, as USD firmed on the JOLTS beat. Higher lows held above the 1.4000 round number into rollover; RSI(14) near 54 is skewed by the rollover spread spike.

Support: 1.4000, 1.39886, 1.39498

Resistance: 1.40115

What it said to watch

Higher-low chain from the 1.3950 London low, holding above 1.4000.

London sold off to a 1.39498 day low before NY reversed it on the back of strong US data, building a higher-low chain through the 1.3990-1.4000 cap to a 1.40115 day high. A thin rollover spike to 1.3996 snapped straight back, and price is holding just above the 1.4000 round number with RSI(14) neutral near 57.

Resistance: 1.40115

HH/HL chain off the 1.3950 London low, holding above 1.4000.

USD/CAD built a HH/HL chain off the 1.3950 London low. Firm US data, led by the JOLTS beat, lifted NY through the 1.3996 Asian high and the 1.4000 round number to a 1.4012 session high. Price is now drifting into the rollover on the rising trendline, and the 1.3989 swing low sits near the 38.2% rally fib.

Support: 1.4000, 1.39962, 1.39886

Resistance: 1.40115

NY reversal from London low, breakout above 1.4000 cap.

NY reversed the London sell-off from the 1.3950 london low as USD firmed on strong US data. Price cleared the Asian range high and the 1.4000 round number, which the CAD digest flags as the recent cap. Since the 18:00 UTC swing low at 1.3989, a tight higher-low chain, holding the 38.2% fib, has carried price to a session high at 1.4012 in thin post-NY trade, with RSI(14) near 72.

Support: 1.4000, 1.39886, 1.39498

Resistance: 1.40115

Uptrend, compressing near highs · RSI 70 · price 1.40084

HH/HL chain off London low, holding above 1.4000.

The NY rally reversed London's slide to 1.3950. Price cleared the Asian high at 1.3996 and the 1.4000 round number after Tuesday's US data beats, while oil whipsawed. The 1.3989 higher low held, and late-NY price is compressing just under the 1.4010 session high with RSI(14) near 70.

Higher lows from the London low; 1.4000 psych now acting as a floor.

USDCAD turned from the 1.3950 London low ahead of NY and climbed as beat-heavy US data, including JOLTS, firmed the USD. The rally cleared the Asian high and the 1.3990-1.4000 cap, and the 1.3989 swing low near the 38.2% fib held as a higher low. Price is drifting just under the 1.4010 session high after NY close, with RSI(14) near 69 and ATR(14) about 4 pips in a tight late-session range.

V-reversal from 1.3950 day low into higher highs/higher lows above 1.4000.

London's slide to the 1.3950 day low reversed sharply from 12:00 UTC. NY then pushed through the 1.3990–1.4000 cap as USD firmed on the JOLTS and factory orders beats and oil whipsawed. The late-NY grind has built higher highs to a 1.4010 session high, with the 1.4000 round number underneath and the 1.3989 swing low, near the 38.2% fib, holding as the last higher low. RSI(14) is around 68 and the bars are narrowing.

Support: 1.4000, 1.39886

London broke below the 1.3967–1.3996 Asian range to a 1.3950 low. The rally from that London low then built a HH/HL chain through NY, as JOLTS and factory orders beats firmed USD and oil whipsawed. Price pushed through the 1.3990–1.4000 cap and is now holding above the 1.4000 round number just under the 1.4006 session high, with RSI(14) around 64 and not stretched.

Price is now holding just over the 1.4000 round number at a 1.4005 session high, with the 17:30 UTC swing low at 1.3989 the latest higher low and the rising trendline from 1.3950 intact.

NY session reversed the 1.3950 London low with a 50-pip rally on firm US data, but the probe through the 1.4000 handle to the 1.4003 day high was rejected.

HH/HL chain since 1.3950, shallow pullback after rejection at session high.

London broke the Asian range low to a london low at 1.3950 as hawkish Macklem remarks and firm oil lifted CAD. NY reversed the move on USD strength after the JOLTS beat, building a HH/HL chain to a 1.4003 session high. Late NY shows rejection at the 1.4000 round number, with price slipping back under the asian high at 1.3996 but holding above the 1.3987 swing low and EMA20.

HH/HL chain off 1.3950; false break above Asian high.

London broke the Asian low and ran to a 1.3950 london low before NY reversed it as USD recovered on Iran headlines. A HH/HL chain carried price to a 1.4003 session high above the 1.3996 asian high. Rejection at the 1.4000 psych has since pulled price back under the asian high and the rising trendline after London close, with RSI(14) cooling to ~60.

London broke below the Asian range to a 1.3950 london low. NY then extended a HH/HL recovery on the US data beats (JOLTS, factory orders), cleared the 1.3996 asian high and was rejected at the 1.4000 round number, leaving a 1.4003 session high.

HH/HL chain since 1.3950 session low, above Asian range.

London sold through the Asian range to a 1.3950 session low at 11:45 UTC, then a 53-pip reversal took NY above the 1.3996 Asian high as US data beat (JOLTS 7.52M), outweighing Macklem's hawkish CAD read. After London close, price is stalling at the 1.4000 psych level after a wick to a 1.4003 day high. The higher-low chain above the 1.3987 swing low is intact, with RSI(14) at about 66.

London sold through the Asian range low to a 1.3950 day low by 11:30 UTC before a sharp midday reversal. NY built a higher-low chain to a 1.3999 session high above the Asian range top.

Higher lows from the 1.3950 London low, highs capped flat at 1.3999.

The 1.3950 London low reversed into a NY-session rally on firm US data. Price reached a session high at 1.3999, rejected three times just shy of the 1.4000 round number. Higher lows at the 1.3970 swing low and the 1.3987 higher low hold along the rising trendline, RSI(14) ~65, and Macklem's 16:00 UTC remarks have drawn little reaction so far.

London sold the pair from the 1.3996 Asian high to a 1.3950 session low as firmer oil lifted CAD. It reversed sharply from 12:00 UTC on strong US data, including the JOLTS and Factory Orders beats, with a rising line of higher lows. Two rejections at the 1.3999 session high just under 1.4000 have price easing to 1.3990, and RSI(14) has cooled to ~58.

London sold through the Asian range to a 1.3950 london low before a sharp turn from 12:00 UTC. NY hours added higher lows at 1.3970 and 1.3978, and the firm JOLTS beat extended the move through the 1.3996 asian high to a 1.3999 session high just under the 1.4000 round number.

London broke below the Asian range low (1.3967) to 1.3950. A sharp reversal from 12:00 UTC then carried price through the Asian high, and NY tagged a 1.3998 session high before rejection just under the 1.4000 psych. Higher lows at the 1.3970 swing low, the 1.3980 fib 38.2 and a 1.3984 higher low keep the micro uptrend intact, with RSI(14) near 63 into JOLTS/Ivey this bar and Macklem at 16:00 UTC.

V-reversal from double bottom; HH/HL chain since 12:00 UTC, back inside Asian range.

The oil-led London slide swept yesterday's 1.3951 low into a 1.3950 double bottom. The early-NY rally reclaimed the Asian low at 1.3979 and printed a higher low at 1.3970, but the 14:00 UTC bar left a rejection wick at the 1.3990 session high, with RSI(14) cooling to about 61.

Price then reversed about 32 pips into the London-NY transition, clearing the 1.3974 swing pivot and breaking the downtrend line.

Downtrend from Asia high, bounce off session low · RSI 50 · price 1.39647

Lower highs since 1.3996, session low swept then rejected.

London broke the Asian low at 1.3967 and extended to a session low at 1.3950. That low briefly undercut yesterday's 1.3951 post-ISM low before a 12-pip rejection bar, with firmer crude keeping CAD supported. Late London has price pressing back toward the Asian low and the fib 38.2% from beneath, with lower highs still intact from the 1.3996 Asia high.

Lower-high/lower-low chain, pressing Monday low.

London broke the Asian range low near 1.3967 and extended the slide from the 1.3996 Asia high. The pair cleared the early-London low at 1.3958 and is now retesting Monday's low at 1.3951, with an 1.3950 print, as CAD tracks firmer crude on renewed US-Iran hostilities. The lower-high sequence is intact, capped at 1.3974, and RSI(14) near 38 is not stretched.

Lower highs off 1.3996; London range 1.3958–1.3974 with price back at the floor.

USD/CAD broke the Asian range low at London open as firmer oil lifted CAD. Since then it has ranged between the 1.3958 London low and the 1.3974 range top.

London open broke below the Asian low near 1.3967, with the London low at 1.3958 holding twice and a lower high capping at 1.3973. The softer USD tone on oil and US-Iran headlines frames the drift; RSI(14) sits near 42 with price under both EMAs, and the Monday low at 1.3951 is the next floor.

London open broke below the Asian range low near 1.3967 and printed a 1.3958 london low. This extends the lower-high line from the 1.3996 asian high, with USD heavy on softer oil and yields. The rebound to the 1.3973 bounce high stalled at the 38.2% fib and the broken Asian low, a retest-and-rejection, with RSI(14) near 42 and price under both EMAs.

USDCAD slid from the 1.3996 Asian high and broke the Asian low at 1.3967 at London open, with oil-driven CAD firmness keeping the pair under 1.4000. The London low at 1.3958 has held so far, and price is basing at 1.3958–1.3969 under the falling trendline, with RSI(14) near 41.

USDCAD has carved lower highs off the 1.3996 Asian high, and London open broke the 1.3967 Asian low to tag 1.3958. The digest ties this to a softer USD and crude firming in Asia. Price is stalling just above the London low with RSI(14) near 32, and the 1.3950 prior low sits beneath.

It is now sitting on a fresh asian low at 1.3967, a shelf that also held during Monday's NY pullbacks, with RSI(14) near 23 and the overnight oil rebound toward $95.80 lending CAD a modest lift into London open.

Asia faded from the 1.3996 Asian high in a steady lower-high sequence. The pair broke the 1.3979 Asian low around 05:00 UTC and is now pinned near the 1.3967 session low into the London open. CAD is drawing a modest lift from crude's rebound toward $95.80, and RSI(14) near 25 shows the slide is stretched on this timeframe.

Support: 1.39673, 1.3950

Resistance: 1.39791, 1.39842, 1.39962

What it said to watch

  • A failure to hold the 1.3967 session low exposes the 1.3950 prior low, yesterday's double-tap base from London and the ISM hour.
  • A reclaim of the 1.3979 Asian low and then the 1.3984 lower high breaks the descending trendline and neutralises the lower-high read.
  • JOLTS and Factory Orders at 15:00 UTC, then Macklem at 16:00 UTC, could materially shift this read.
  • US midterm results overnight could add a fresh volatility spike.

LH/LL chain below broken Asia base, pressing session low.

Asia stalled at a 1.3996 session high just short of the 1.40 psych handle. Since then the pair has printed lower highs, broken the 1.3980 asia base and set a fresh session low at 1.3967 into the London open, with CAD firming as crude steadied near $95.80. RSI(14) is cooling at 26 and ATR is a tight 3.7 pips. Yesterday's 1.3950 prior low, a double test from the London and NY sessions, sits about 20 pips below.

Resistance: 1.3980, 1.39962, 1.4000

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back above the 1.3980 asia base, the 38.2% fib zone, negates the lower-low sequence
  • Failure to hold the 1.3967 session low exposes the 1.3950 prior low
  • A break of the descending trendline from the 1.3996 session high would end the LH chain
  • US JOLTS at 15:00 UTC and Macklem at 16:00 UTC could materially shift this read later today

Lower highs and lower lows since the 1.3996 Asian high; Asian low broken.

Asia faded from the 1.3996 Asian high in a steady lower-high chain. Price broke the 1.3979 Asian low as crude's overnight rebound toward $95.80 lifted CAD, and is sitting at the 1.3969 session low into London open with RSI(14) at 28. The 1.3984 lower high and the descending trendline from the session high have capped each bounce.

  • Failure to hold the 1.3969 session low exposes the 1.3950 prior low, tested twice yesterday
  • Close above the 1.3984 lower high and the lower-high trendline ends the sequence, with the 1.3996 Asian high next

Intraday downtrend off the Asian high · RSI 31 · price 1.39696

Lower highs and lower lows since 1.3996, Asian low broken.

Asia briefly pushed above Monday's 1.3994 high to an Asian high of 1.3996. That false break faded about 27 pips in a chain of lower highs and lower lows as crude's rebound toward $95.80 lifted CAD. Late in the Asia session price has cut through the Asian low at 1.3979 and sits on the fib 61.8 of Monday's 1.3951–1.3996 rally, with RSI(14) near 31 heading into London open.

Support: 1.3968, 1.3951

What it said to watch

  • Failure to hold the fib 61.8 at 1.3968 exposes the Monday low at 1.3951

Lower highs from the Asia high, testing the 50% retrace of the NY rally.

Asia session saw a rejection at the 1.3996 asia high, just shy of 1.40. Since then the pair has printed lower highs, with the latest lower high at 1.3984, back to 1.3973, the 50% retrace of yesterday's NY rally off the 1.3951 day low, with the 1.3970 ny pivot just below. Price is below both EMAs, RSI(14) is near 34 and ATR is about 4 pips into London open, still inside the 1.3950–1.3996 range as oil swings offset a softer USD.

Support: 1.3970, 1.3951

Resistance: 1.3984, 1.3996

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3970 ny pivot extends the lower-high sequence toward the 1.3951 day low

Intraday downtrend from the Asia high · RSI 35 · price 1.3976

Lower highs and lower lows since 1.3996; overnight low at 1.3979 giving way.

The Asia session has faded from the 1.3996 high in a chain of lower highs, and price is now pressing just below the 1.3979 Asia low late in the session, with RSI(14) near 35. The drop is retracing Monday's NY rally off the 1.3950 Monday low, a rally driven by oil weakness that weighed on CAD. The 50% fib at 1.3974 and the 1.3967 swing low sit directly below.

Support: 1.3974, 1.3967, 1.3950

Resistance: 1.3979, 1.3984, 1.3996

What it said to watch

  • Holding below the 1.3979 Asia low keeps the lower-high sequence intact into London open
  • A reclaim of the 1.3984 lower high would break the Asia trendline and neutralise the fade
  • Losing the 1.3967 swing low (61.8% fib zone) exposes the 1.3950 Monday low
  • US JOLTS/Factory Orders at 15:00 UTC and Macklem at 16:00 UTC could materially shift this read; midterm headlines add event risk

Intraday pullback inside a 24h range · RSI 36 · price 1.39794

Lower highs off the Asian high, testing Asian low.

Late Asia session has faded from the 1.3996 Asian high in a chain of lower highs. Price is retesting the 1.3978 Asian low, which sits on the 38.2% fib of the NY rally off the 1.3950 day low, with soft-USD oil/Iran flows and a firm CAD keeping the 1.3950–1.4000 range intact.

Short-term downtrend inside a broader intraday range · RSI 37 · price 1.3981

Lower highs since the Asian session high, testing the Asian low.

The Asian session rejected 1.3996, just shy of the 1.40 round number. It then printed a chain of lower highs, with the latest at 1.3984, down to a 1.3978 Asian low. That low sits on the 38.2% retracement of the 1.3951–1.3996 rally, and RSI(14) is near 37 with price below both EMAs as CAD firms with crude's overnight rebound.

  • An M15 close below the 1.3978 Asian low opens the 1.3970 NY swing low and the 50% rally fib near 1.3974.
  • Loss of 1.3970 brings the 1.3950 prior low back into view; that floor held twice during London and NY hours.
  • A reclaim of the 1.3984 lower high breaks the lower-high sequence and puts the 1.3996 Asian high and 1.40 round number back in play.
  • US midterm results through the Asia and London sessions, and Macklem at 16:00 UTC, could materially shift this read.

Lows at 1.3950 in London and 1.3951 after the 15:00 UTC ISM print formed a double bottom. Price cleared the 1.3989 neckline even as oil-led USD softness weighed, then stalled at the 1.3996 asian high below the 1.40 round number. The late-Asia pullback found the 1.3978 asian low at the 38.2% fib, with RSI(14) at 39 and price just under both EMAs ahead of London open.

Asia-session lower highs off 1.3996; testing Asian low inside 1.3951–1.3996 range.

Asia session ran to 1.3996 but met rejection just short of the 1.4000 round number. It has since unwound to the Asian low at 1.3978, which sits on the 38.2% fib of the NY-Asia rally. Yesterday's oil-driven chop built a 1.3951–1.3996 range, and the yday low held as a double bottom; price is now below both EMAs with RSI(14) near 41.

Lower highs since Asian high, testing Asian range low.

The Asian session push stalled at the 1.3996 asian high, level with Monday's late high and just under 1.4000. It has since fully unwound to the 1.3979 asian low, which also marks the 38.2% fib of Monday's 1.3951–1.3996 NY recovery. Price is printing lower highs since 02:15 UTC with RSI(14) near 34 and sits below EMA20/50 into the London open, while CAD holds firm near the 1.3941–1.3990 band on a hawkish BoC and oil swings.

Higher lows off the 1.3950 double bottom; late-Asia pullback toward 1.3984.

A double bottom at 1.3950 from Monday's London and NY lows, with the NY flush tracking oil and USD swings on Iran headlines, fed a higher-low climb into Asia. The Asian high at 1.3996 is capping just shy of the 1.4000 round number. Late in the Asia session, price is easing back to the 1.3984 pullback low near the 23.6% fib, with RSI(14) neutral near 53 and ATR about 4.5 pips.

Double bottom at 1.3951, higher lows; Asian range 1.3979–1.3996.

London's twin lows at 1.3951 formed a double bottom, the second during the ISM print, which the market ignored. The NY rally then built a higher lows chain to 1.3994. Asia has held a 1.3979–1.3996 range, with the asian low sitting on the 38.2% of that NY rally, and the asian high capping price just shy of the 1.40 round number as Qeshm headlines lift oil.

Since then the pair has built higher lows, and the late-NY push extended into a 1.3996 Asian high just shy of the 1.4000 round number. Price is now sitting on rising support near 1.3988, with the 1.3979 Asian low matching the 38.2% fib of the ny-asia leg.

The 1.3950 double bottom from the London and NY lows built a chain of higher lows at 1.3970 and the 1.3979 Asian low. Asia set an Asian high at 1.3996 as the Qeshm strike headlines hit, then stalled short of the 1.4000 round number. Price is now easing onto the ema20 near 1.3989 with RSI(14) neutral around 55.

Twin lows near 1.3950, one in London and one in the 15:00 UTC drop, set the base. The NY recovery then built a higher-low chain along rising support. Asia is extending it to a session high at 1.3996, just under the 1.4000 round number, with RSI(14) near 61, despite the digest's soft-USD, lower-oil backdrop.

Early Asia session has edged to a new Asian high at 1.3996, marginally clearing the NY high, with RSI(14) near 58 and a 3.9-pip ATR reflecting thin Asian conditions under the 1.4000 round number, as CAD stays firm against a soft USD.

Tight Asian consolidation under the 1.3994 prior high; rising trendline intact.

A double bottom at the 1.3950 day low, set once in London and again in NY, launched a NY-session rebound to the 1.3994 prior high as sliding oil weighed on CAD. Asia is now holding 1.3979–1.3993 just under the 1.40 round number. The asian low sits on the 38.2% level of the NY rally fib and the rising trendline, with RSI(14) neutral near 55.

Yesterday's double low near 1.3950 held through London and the 15:00 UTC US PMI data. Price then built a chain of rising lows through NY to a 1.3994 prior high as sliding WTI weighed on CAD. Early Asia is holding a 1.3979–1.3993 range under the 1.40 round number, with the 00:30 UTC spike to 1.3993 rejected and RSI(14) flat near 52.

Support: 1.3979, 1.3970, 1.3950

Resistance: 1.3994, 1.4000

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3994 prior high puts the 1.40 round number in play
  • A break of the 1.3979 asian low and the rising lows trendline exposes the 1.3970 swing low
  • US midterm voting today, plus JOLTS at 15:00 UTC and Macklem at 16:00 UTC, could materially shift this read

Recovering from intraday lows, stalling below 1.40 · RSI 51 · price 1.39883

Double low at 1.3950, higher-low recovery, now a 1.3979-1.3994 consolidation.

Monday's two flushes into the 1.3950 double low, at London open and again around the US ISM release as oil/Iran headlines weighed on USD, both got absorbed, and the rebound printed a ny high at 1.3994. Early Asia is holding a 1.3979-1.3993 range just under the 1.40 round number, with the asian low sitting on the 38.2% retrace and the rising trendline. RSI is flat near 51 and ATR is about 4 pips.

Support: 1.3979, 1.3951

Resistance: 1.39944, 1.4000

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3994 ny high puts the 1.40 round number in play
  • Break of the 1.3979 asian low and the rising trendline exposes the 50-61.8% retrace zone at 1.3973-1.3968
  • Loss of the 1.3951 double low would invalidate the recovery read
  • US midterm and US-Iran/oil headlines through Asia and London could jolt the pair outside the current range

Intraday uptrend from 1.3950, pulling back · RSI 40 · price 1.3981

Higher lows off the double bottom, early-Asia pullback toward 38.2% fib.

Monday's London and NY lows formed a double bottom at 1.3950, and the late-NY climb stalled at a 1.3994 day high, capped under the 1.40 handle as oil-driven USD softness lingered. Early Asia has eased to 1.3981, holding a thin 1.3979 session low to 1.3990 session high range near the 38.2% fib, with RSI(14) cooling to about 40.

Support: 1.3979, 1.3970, 1.3950

Resistance: 1.3990, 1.3994, 1.4000

What it said to watch

  • An M15 close below the 1.3979 session low and the 38.2% fib exposes the 1.3970 swing low.
  • A close above the 1.3994 day high brings the 1.40 handle back into play.
  • Loss of 1.3970 shifts focus back to the 1.3950 double btm.
  • US midterm results overnight and US-Iran oil headlines could materially shift this read.

Intraday recovery stalling, shallow pullback · RSI 43 · price 1.3981

Double-bottom base at 1.3950, lower highs capping below 1.3994.

USDCAD put in a double bottom at 1.3950/51, first in London and again on the NY drop around the 15:00 UTC data. It then rallied to a 1.3994 day high as the USD softened with oil, but was rejected below 1.40. In early Asia the pair has held the 1.3980 rollover low twice under a 1.3990 lower high, trading below the EMA20, on the EMA50, with RSI near 43.

Support: 1.3980, 1.3970, 1.3950

Resistance: 1.3990, 1.3994, 1.4000

What it said to watch

  • Break of the 1.3980 rollover low exposes the 38.2% rally fib near 1.3978 and the 1.3970 pullback low
  • Close above the 1.3990 lower high and 1.3994 day high reopens a test of the 1.40 psych handle
  • Loss of 1.3950 would void the double bottom read
  • Oil and US-Iran headlines, US JOLTS (15:00 UTC) and Macklem (16:00 UTC) could materially shift this read

Intraday uptrend from 1.3950, pausing below day high · RSI 48 · price 1.39855

Higher low at 1.3980 after 1.3994 day high; Asia drifting mid-range.

London and NY both found demand near 1.3950, forming a double btm as USD stayed soft on oil and Iran diplomacy headlines. Late NY pushed to a 1.3994 day high. Early Asia has eased back but is holding a higher low at 1.3980, on rising support, with RSI(14) neutral near 48 and ATR(14) around 4 pips.

Support: 1.3980, 1.3951

Resistance: 1.3994, 1.4000

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3980 higher low breaks rising support and exposes the 38.2% rally fib near 1.3978
  • Acceptance above the 1.3994 day high puts the 1.4000 round number in play
  • Loss of the 1.3951 double btm would negate the intraday recovery
  • BoC's Macklem (Tue 16:00 UTC) and midterm results later in the week could materially shift CAD and USD
