USDCAD technical analysis
The pair is turning down due to the rising crude oil prices after Wednesday’s sell-off. The positive dynamics of futures for major stock indices in Europe and the US also puts pressure on the pair. If this positive sentiment persists, while today’s US unemployment claims are fewer, expect a new decline of the pair. Keep track of the rate changes in real-time.
Trading recommendations: sell the pair after it crosses 1.4080 with a local target of 1.3865.
