USDCAD in Focus: Navigating Dollar Weakness and Upcoming CPI
Hey Traders, as we dive into today's trading session, our focus is keenly set on USDCAD, where we are eyeing a potential selling opportunity around the 1.34100 zone. The currency pair has been following a clear downtrend and is currently undergoing a correction phase, gradually approaching the trend at the crucial 1.34100 support and resistance area.
Adding depth to our analysis, recent economic data has revealed weak figures for the US ISM (Institute for Supply Management), falling below market expectations. This unexpected downturn in the ISM figures suggests potential weakness in the US dollar, influencing our cautious approach in the current trading environment.
Looking ahead to the week, anticipation builds as the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the US is scheduled for release on Thursday. If the CPI data comes in softer than expected on January 11th, it could exert additional pressure on the Federal Reserve to consider rate cuts in the upcoming March meeting. This fundamental context enhances our attention to the USDCAD pair, and we'll be closely monitoring how these factors unfold in the market dynamics throughout the week.
Trade safe!
