Downtrend, momentum slowing near lows · RSI 44 · price 1.40417

Lower highs, consolidating above week low.

USDCAD has ground lower since Monday's open near 1.4169, a USD-led slide on soft US CPI/PPI trimming Fed-hike bets, and is now probing four-week lows around 1.4010. Price sits below EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI(14) mid-40s, and the last several hours show thin Asia-session consolidation around 1.4040 after the decline stalled. Lower highs remain intact from the weekly high into the 1.4077 area.

Support: 1.40101, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.40577, 1.40769, 1.4130

What it said to watch

  • H1 close below 1.4010 confirms a lower-low, opening the 1.4000 psych level
  • Reclaim of 1.4050 prior high needed to challenge the lower-highs line
  • Canada CPI Mon 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read

23:02 UTC

Downtrend, momentum slowing · RSI 44 · price 1.40417

Lower highs into consolidation above weekly low.

USDCAD has ground lower all week from Monday's 1.4174 open, printing a four-week low near 1.4010 on soft US CPI/PPI and receding Fed-hike odds. Price has since stalled into a tight consolidation around 1.4040, holding below both EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI(14) cycling in the low 40s. The move remains USD-led; 1.4058 has capped the last two attempts higher.

Support: 1.40101, 1.40244

Resistance: 1.40577, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • H1 close below 1.4010 confirms a fresh lower-low
  • Reclaim of 1.4058 breaks the current consolidation
  • Canada CPI Mon 20 Jul 12:30 UTC could reset this read

22:02 UTC

Downtrend, momentum easing · RSI 43 · price 1.40385

Lower highs, consolidating at lows.

USDCAD has ground down to a four-week low near 1.401 through the week, a USD-led slide on soft US CPI/PPI that trimmed Fed-hike bets; the in-line BoC hold added little. Price sits below EMA20 and EMA50 with lower highs intact, but the last day has stalled into a tight consolidation between the 1.401 week low and the 1.4058 swing high. RSI(14) around 43 reflects fading downside momentum rather than a turn.

Support: 1.4020, 1.40101

Resistance: 1.4058, 1.4077, 1.4100

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above the 1.41 psych pivot would break the lower-high sequence
  • Loss of the 1.401 week low confirms trend continuation
  • Canada CPI Mon 12:30 UTC and UoM inflation expectations Fri 14:00 UTC could reset this read

22:02 UTC

Downtrend, basing near lows · RSI 45 · price 1.40385

Lower highs, lower lows; consolidating at week low.

USDCAD ground to a four-week low near 1.4010 through the week, a USD-led move on soft US CPI/PPI rather than a CAD story, with the BoC hold landing in line. Price has since basing between 1.4032 and 1.4058, holding below EMA20 and EMA50 as RSI(14) recovers off the lows. The session high at 1.40577 has capped the bounce.

Support: 1.4032, 1.4010, 1.3970

Resistance: 1.40577

What it said to watch

  • Sustained break below 1.4010 week low opens the path to the 50d ma near 1.3970
  • Hourly close above 1.40577 session high would ease the downside pressure
  • Canada CPI Mon 12:30 UTC and Fri UoM inflation expectations are the key catalysts for this pair

21:04 UTC

Downtrend, momentum slowing near lows · RSI 44 · price 1.4041

Series of lower highs, basing above week low.

USDCAD has ground lower all week from Monday's ~1.4149 open to a four-week low at 1.4010, a USD-led slide on softer US CPI/PPI rather than a CAD story. Price is now consolidating 1.4032-1.4057 just below EMA(20), with RSI(14) cycling in the low 40s and each bounce capped under the 1.4077 prior high. The 1.4057 day high has held two recent attempts while buyers stepped in twice off the 1.4010 area.

Support: 1.4010, 1.4032

Resistance: 1.4057, 1.4077, 1.4114

What it said to watch

Downtrend, grinding lower · RSI 44 · price 1.4041

Series of lower highs and lower lows.

USDCAD has trended lower since Monday's open, pressing a four-week low near 1.4039 on the softer-USD backdrop after cool US CPI/PPI. The sharp NY-session leg down through 1.4115 to 1.4054 set the tone, and price has since consolidated just above the 1.4010 weekly low, capped by lower highs and sitting under both EMA(20) and EMA(50). RSI(14) cycling in the low-40s reflects fading downside momentum without a turn.

Support: 1.4039, 1.4010, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.4077, 1.4130

What it said to watch

  • Sustained H1 close below 1.4010 confirms a fresh lower low
  • Reclaim of 1.4077 prior high would break the lower-high sequence
  • Canada CPI Mon 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read

20:03 UTC

Downtrend, momentum slowing · RSI 49 · price 1.40486

Consolidating near week lows after impulse down.

USD/CAD has trended lower since Monday's open, with the soft US CPI/PPI repricing dragging price to a four-week low at 1.40101 before a bounce. It is now consolidating in a 1.404–1.406 band, hovering around EMA(20) but capped below EMA(50). RSI(14) has recovered to the mid-line after basing near the week's low.

Support: 1.4030, 1.40101

Resistance: 1.4059, 1.40769

What it said to watch

20:02 UTC

Downtrend, momentum stalling · RSI 52 · price 1.40486

Basing near four-week lows after impulsive leg down.

USDCAD has trended lower since Monday's open, with the dominant leg driven through NY hours on the dovish US CPI/PPI repricing that gutted Fed-hike bets. Price bottomed near 1.4010 yesterday and has since consolidated back to 1.4048, reclaiming EMA20 while EMA50 caps overhead. RSI has recovered off oversold into the low-50s as the sell-off loses pace.

Support: 1.40101, 1.40196

Resistance: 1.40577, 1.40769, 1.41067

What it said to watch

Downtrend, momentum slowing · RSI 45 · price 1.4047

Lower highs, consolidating above week low.

USDCAD has ground lower all week from Monday's ~1.4155 open toward a four-week low near 1.4010, driven by soft US inflation prints trimming Fed-hike odds. Price has stabilised in a 1.4040–1.4077 range over the last day as the USD steadied off its lows, with RSI(14) lifting off oversold. The descending sequence of lower highs remains intact.

19:02 UTC

Downtrend, momentum slowing near lows · RSI 49 · price 1.4047

Lower highs, lower lows; basing above 1.4010.

USDCAD has ground lower since Monday's ~1.4155 open, a USD-led slide on soft US CPI/PPI that pushed the pair to a four-week low near 1.4010; the in-line BoC hold added little CAD-specific impulse. Price is now basing in a tight 1.4010-1.4058 range and pressing back to the H1 EMA(20), with RSI(14) recovering toward 50 after cycling near oversold at the lows. The broader lower-high/lower-low structure off 1.4174 remains intact.

Support: 1.4040, 1.4010

Resistance: 1.4058, 1.4077, 1.4130

  • UoM sentiment + inflation expectations Fri 14:00 UTC could shift the USD read

18:02 UTC

Downtrend, bounce underway · RSI 53 · price 1.40545

Lower highs into a four-week low, recovering.

USDCAD has trended lower all week in a USD-led slide, printing a four-week low near 1.4010 before demand stepped in during the NY session on Middle East safe-haven flows and pre-data caution. Price has since reclaimed EMA20 with RSI(14) recovering to the low-50s, but it stalls under the 1.4100 pivot and remains below EMA50. The 1.4077 swing high caps the current bounce.

Support: 1.4039, 1.4010

Resistance: 1.4077, 1.4100, 1.4130

What it said to watch

18:02 UTC

Downtrend, momentum easing on bounce · RSI 52 · price 1.40545

Lower highs and lower lows; bouncing off week low.

USDCAD has trended lower since Monday's open, sliding from 1.4174 to a fresh week low at 1.4010 as soft US CPI/PPI drove the week's dovish USD repricing. Price has since reclaimed EMA20 into the NY session, but sits below EMA50 and under the 1.4100 pivot, keeping the lower-high, lower-low sequence intact. The bounce off 1.4010 lifted RSI back to mid-range, though supply near the 1.4077 prior high and 1.4100 pivot has yet to be tested.

Support: 1.4010, 1.4039

Resistance: 1.4077, 1.4100, 1.4130

17:03 UTC

Downtrend, momentum slowing · RSI 48 · price 1.40507

Lower highs, lower lows into 4-week low.

USDCAD has trended lower all week from Monday's 1.41742 high, printing a 4-week low near 1.4010 as soft US CPI/PPI and firm oil kept the Loonie bid. Price has bounced into the NY session and reclaimed EMA20, but EMA50 still caps overhead and each rally this week has stalled beneath descending lower highs. The BoC hold drew minimal reaction; direction remains a USD/oil story.

Support: 1.4032, 1.40101

Resistance: 1.4065, 1.40769, 1.41446

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above the 1.4065 prior high challenges the descending lower-highs

Downtrend, momentum flattening · RSI 49 · price 1.40507

Lower highs, lower lows; basing near week low.

USDCAD has trended lower since Monday's session, accelerating on the soft US PPI print and printing a fresh week low at 1.4010 into NY hours before demand stepped in. Price now consolidates just above EMA20 while EMA50 near 1.4055 caps the bounce; RSI(14) has cycled back toward 50 off oversold, with the recent lower low not confirmed by momentum. Disinflation-driven USD softness plus firmer oil kept the pair pinned near four-week lows.

Support: 1.40101, 1.4000, 1.4032

Resistance: 1.4055, 1.40769

What it said to watch

  • Failure to hold 1.4010 week low opens the 1.4000 round number
  • Fed speakers today (Schmid 17:25, Jefferson 23:00 UTC) could inject USD volatility

16:02 UTC

Downtrend, momentum easing · RSI 42 · price 1.40351

Series of lower highs and lower lows.

USDCAD has trended lower all week off Monday's 1.4174 area, with the dominant leg down during Tuesday's NY session that broke the four-week low near 1.4039 — soft US CPI/PPI and firmer CAD driving the move. Price is grinding just under EMA20 (~1.4042) after basing at 1.40101, with RSI(14) sitting near 41 as downside momentum eases into the Asia/London handover. The 1.40 handle is the pivot the week's decline is now testing.

Support: 1.40101, 1.4000, 1.4039

Resistance: 1.4042, 1.4077, 1.41067

What it said to watch

  • Sustained break of 1.40101 / the 1.40 handle extends the downtrend
  • Canada CPI Mon 12:30 GMT and Fed speakers today could reset this read

16:02 UTC

Downtrend, momentum slowing near lows · RSI 43 · price 1.40351

Series of lower highs and lower lows.

USDCAD has trended lower since Monday's 1.4124 open, sliding to a fresh four-week low at 1.4010 during yesterday's NY session as soft US CPI/PPI kept the dollar offered against a firm Loonie. Price sits below EMA20 and EMA50 with RSI(14) cycling in the low 40s, and a modest bounce off 1.4010 into today's session hasn't reclaimed the 1.4053 prior-high shelf. The descending channel of lower highs remains intact.

Support: 1.40101, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.4053, 1.4124

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above 1.4053 would challenge the downtrend structure
  • Failure to hold 1.4010 opens the 1.4000 psych handle
  • Canada CPI (Mon Jul 20) is the next domestic catalyst and could reset this read

15:02 UTC

Downtrend, lower highs holding · RSI 41 · price 1.40326

Descending, sequence of lower highs and lower lows.

USDCAD has trended lower all week, printing a fresh four-week low near 1.4010 as broad USD weakness after soft US PPI kept pressure on the pair. Price sits below EMA20 (~1.4046) and EMA50 with RSI(14) around 40, and each NY-session bounce this week has stalled at descending resistance. Today's mixed US data (strong Philly Fed, soft pending home sales) drew little reaction with the softer-Dollar tone intact.

Support: 1.40101, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.4046

What it said to watch

  • H1 close above 1.4046 EMA20 challenges the lower-high sequence

  • Fed speakers (Logan/Schmid/Jefferson) today could shift the USD read
  • Canada CPI Mon Jul 20 is the next major catalyst for this pair

Downtrend, near week lows · RSI 40 · price 1.40326

Sequence of lower highs and lower lows.

USDCAD has trended lower all week, pressing a fresh four-week low at 1.4010 as broad USD weakness after soft CPI/PPI dominated the tape; the pair sits below both EMA(20) and EMA(50). Price broke the 1.4050 shelf during the NY session and has only managed a shallow bounce to 1.4033, keeping RSI(14) subdued near 40. The BoC hold drew little FX reaction, leaving USD direction as the driver.

Support: 1.40101, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.4050

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above 1.4050 broken support would soften the lower-high structure
  • Failure to hold 1.4010 week low opens the 1.4000 psych area
  • Michigan Sentiment + inflation expectations (Fri 14:00 UTC) could shift the USD read

14:02 UTC

Downtrend, extending lower · RSI 34 · price 1.40234

Series of lower highs and lower lows.

USDCAD has trended lower all week, capped by a descending sequence of lower highs as a soft USD (back-to-back inflation misses) meets a firm loonie after the hawkish-hold BoC. Price broke the 1.4030 shelf into the NY session and printed a fresh week low at 1.40101, holding below both EMA(20) and EMA(50). RSI(14) near 33 reflects the persistent selling pressure without yet an oversold divergence.

Support: 1.40101, 1.4000, 1.3970

Resistance: 1.4046

What it said to watch

Downtrend, extending lower · RSI 34 · price 1.40234

Consecutive lower highs and lower lows.

USDCAD has trended lower all week from Monday's 1.4174 high, printing steady lower highs and now slicing the four-week low near 1.4039 into the NY session. The break lower fits a soft-USD backdrop after this week's downside inflation prints and a firm loonie post-hawkish BoC hold. Price sits well below EMA(20) and EMA(50) with RSI(14) pressed near oversold as the 1.4010 area is tested.

Support: 1.40101, 1.4000

Resistance: 1.4049, 1.40769, 1.41067

What it said to watch

RSI(14) sits weak near 38 with no bullish divergence as the 1.4039 pivot now caps from above.

Resistance: 1.4039

What it said to watch

  • H1 close back above 1.4039 prior low would neutralise the breakout
