Canadian Dollar Is Losing Some Ground Against U.S. Dollar

USD/CAD is currently trying to settle above 1.2550 while the U.S. dollar is losing ground against a broad basket of currencies.

The U.S. Dollar Index managed to get below the support at 92.50 and is testing the next support level which is located at the 20 EMA at 92.35. In case the U.S. Dollar Index manages to settle below this level, it will head towards the next support at 92.15 which will be bearish for USD/CAD.

No important economic reports are scheduled to be released in the U.S. and Canada today so foreign exchange market traders will stay focused on general market sentiment and dynamics of commodity markets.

WTI oil rebounded towards the psychologically important $60 level but this move failed to provide additional support to Canadian dollar.

Meanwhile, Treasury yields continue to move lower as investors increase their exposure to U.S. government bonds. If this pullback continues, the U.S. dollar will find itself under more pressure.
