USD/CAD Technical Analysis October 20, 2011

The USD/CAD continued to respect the parity support area on Wednesday, as not only the demand for “riskier” currencies fell, but the demand for oil did as well. This was a double-whammy for the Canadian currency, and it showed in this market. The resulting candle is a hammer, and it looks like the market is ready to jump back up on any signs of bad news. If the oil markets move to the downside from here, we expect this up move to continue. Watch oil for the bias, and then trade the Canadian dollar accordingly.
