USD/CAD(20251218)Today's AnalysisMarket News:
The European Central Bank (ECB) held rates steady for the fourth consecutive meeting, adopting a more positive outlook on the Eurozone economy.
The ECB kept the deposit facility rate unchanged at 2%, in line with market expectations. The main refinancing rate and marginal lending rate remained unchanged at 2.15% and 2.40%, respectively. The euro rose briefly against the dollar.
Traders' bets on ECB rates remained stable, with expectations of a 3 basis point rate hike in 2026. The money market now anticipates a greater than 50% chance of an ECB rate hike before March 2027, up from 35% before the ECB's statement.
The ECB raised several of its forecasts for Eurozone economic growth and inflation, a move that may close the door on further rate cuts in the near future.

USD/CAD declined and is now consolidating losses below 1.3800.
Important Takeaways for USD/CAD Analysis Today
- USD/CAD started a fresh decline after it failed to stay above 1.3800.
- There is a connecting bearish trend line with resistance at 1.3780 on the hourly chart.
USD/CAD Technical Analysis
On the hourly chart of USD/CAD, the pair climbed toward 1.3880 before the bears appeared. The US Dollar formed a swing high near 1.3872 and recently declined below 1.3800 against the Canadian Dollar.
There was also a close below the 50-hour simple moving average and 1.3780. The bulls are now active near 1.3730, but they might fail to protect more losses. If there is an upside correction, the pair could face resistance near 1.3780 and a connecting bearish trend line.
An upside break above the trend line might send the pair toward the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the 1.3872 swing high to the 1.3730 low.
The next key hurdle on the USD/CAD chart is near the 61.8% Fib retracement at 1.3815. If there is a close above 1.3815, the pair could rise toward 1.3870. The next major sell zone is 1.3900, above which it could rise steadily toward the 1.4000 handle.
Immediate support is near the 1.3750 level. The first major area of interest for the bulls could be 1.3730. A close below the 1.3730 level might trigger a strong decline. In the stated case, USD/CAD might test 1.3650. Any more losses may possibly open the doors for a drop toward 1.3600.

📋 Description:
Dear Ladies & Gentleman (Thief OG’s),
Here’s the plan for our favourite cross, USD/CAD – “The Loonie”:
Plan: Bullish bias (with a setup for a potential bearish flip if you like to dance with the other side)
Entry (Bullish):
Pullback-1: 1.39400
Pullback-2: 1.39000
Enter at a dip into one of those levels, let the market breathe, then ride the wave.
Stop Loss:
This is Thief SL at 1.38800 — place your stop after the pullback level you used.
Target (Bullish):
Our target zone: 1.41000 — watch for strong resistance, overbought signals & a possible trap. Escape with profit when you see the signs.
Entry (Bearish):
If you prefer the short side: you may enter anywhere, but keep sharp eyes on pullback zones and the target levels below.
Bearish Targets: 1.39400 & 1.39000

FX:USDCAD
UASDCAD: Bearish! A Little Pullback, Then Down!The USD has been weakened over the past couple of weeks. Markets are at a 90% pchance the Fed cut rates by .25 bp, and that Trump will be installing Hasset, a loyalist, as Fed Chair. Couple that with the positive job numbers that Canada announced last week, and you see the downward trajectory of the USDCAD heading down.
It seems very likely that we will see more movement downtown this week.
I am expecting an OHLC candle for the week ahead.
The Draw on liquidity (DOL) would likely be the relative equal lows to the left.
May profits be upon you.

USD/CAD Recovers From a 2.5-Month LowUSD/CAD Recovers From a 2.5-Month Low
The main driver of the decline was a sharp shift in sentiment and diverging expectations for policy actions in the United States and Canada.
→ Canada: Friday’s employment data came in far stronger than forecast. As a result, traders sharply reduced the likelihood of a Bank of Canada rate cut at the next meeting, judging the economy resilient enough to pause its easing cycle.
→ United States: Markets are pricing in a high probability of a Federal Reserve rate cut at tomorrow’s meeting (22:00 GMT+3).
This contrast pushed USD/CAD to a 2.5-month low. However, the chart shows that the bulls may still have some grounds for optimism.
USD/CAD Technical Analysis
On 1 December we analysed the USD/CAD chart and:
→ drew an ascending channel (shown in blue) and noted several bearish signals;
→ suggested that the 1.4000 level would act as resistance in the near term, with bears likely to attempt to resume the downward move in USD/CAD.
Indeed, as the arrow indicates, the bears managed to restart the downtrend, which led to:
→ a breakout below the lower boundary of the channel;
→ the need to map out a descending trajectory (shown in red), with its median potentially acting as resistance going forward.
In this context, it is reasonable to assume that the bulls have some cause for hope in the short term, as:
→ the price is rebounding from the lower boundary of the red channel, indicating demand;
→ the RSI has risen from extreme oversold levels;
→ the candle highlighted by the second arrow looks bullish – it closed near the top of its range, forming a long lower shadow.
Given the above, traders should not rule out a corrective recovery in USD/CAD until the Federal Reserve releases its decision, which could significantly impact financial markets.

USDCAD - Breakout Will Flip the Trend BullishUSDCAD has been sliding inside a well-defined descending channel, completing a full five-wave drop toward the support zone. The structure from the top looks corrective rather than impulsive. That means the downtrend is weakening as it reaches its final leg.
Your count shows Wave 3 finishing at the dashed red line zone, followed by a small Wave 4 bounce, and now the market is pushing into the last Wave 5. This final drop is expected to target the Fibonacci levels near 1.3915 and 1.3895 . Nothing suggests strength until those levels are tested.
The price is still trapped inside the downward channel, and every bounce has been getting sold. That confirms sellers are still in control for now. Wave (C) is close to completion, but buyers haven’t proven anything yet.
The bullish outlook only becomes valid after a clean breakout above the channel. Without that break, any upside move is just noise inside a bearish structure. The breakout must hold with a higher low to confirm a trend reversal.
If the channel breaks decisively, a strong bullish reversal toward 1.40+ becomes possible. The entire structure suggests the downtrend is aging, so a major upside swing is likely once sellers exhaust. Until then, downside targets remain open and caution is necessary.
Stay Tuned!

USD/CAD Price Outlook – Trade Setup📊 Technical Structure
OANDA:USDCAD USD/CAD is trading flat around 1.3950, holding below the 1.3966–1.3975 Resistance Zone, where repeated rejections keep the short-term bias tilted to the downside. The pair continues to oscillate within a compressed structure, failing to sustain any break above resistance, while the 1.3928–1.3937 Support Zone remains untested below.
As long as price stays under the resistance band, the structure favours another push lower toward support. A clean hourly close above 1.3975 would invalidate the bearish setup and shift momentum back upward.
🎯 Trade Setup
Entry: 1.3966 – 1.3975
Stop Loss: 1.3980
Take Profit 1: 1.3937
Take Profit 2: 1.3928
Risk–Reward Ratio: Approximately 1 : 2.5
Bearish structure remains valid below 1.3975. A breakout above this level invalidates the setup.
🌐 Macro Background
USD/CAD trades in a tight range ahead of Canada’s November employment report. Markets expect the Unemployment Rate to rise to 7%, signalling slower labour-market conditions and increasing the likelihood that the Bank of Canada (BoC) could extend its easing cycle at next week’s policy meeting. Soft Canadian data would generally weaken the CAD.
Meanwhile, the US Dollar remains subdued as traders firmly price in a 25 bps Fed rate cut at the December 9–10 meeting. According to the CME FedWatch Tool, the probability of a cut stands near 87%. Weakening labour-market indicators in the US and expectations that tariff-driven inflation is non-persistent add to the dovish pressure on the USD.
Overall, both currencies face macro headwinds, but the technical picture for USD/CAD favours a downside continuation toward support unless Canada’s jobs report surprises significantly.
🔑 Key Technical Levels
Resistance Zone: 1.3966 – 1.3975
Support Zone: 1.3928 – 1.3937
Structure Break (Invalidation): 1.3980
Targets: 1.3937 / 1.3928
📌 Trade Summary
USD/CAD remains capped beneath the resistance zone, preserving a short-term bearish structure. The preferred approach is to sell into 1.3966–1.3975, targeting a move back toward 1.3928–1.3937 support. A sustained move above 1.3980 cancels the setup.

Canadian Dollar Strengthened Sharply After Unexpected GDP DataThe Canadian Dollar Strengthened Sharply After Unexpected GDP Data
Statistics Canada reported on Friday that real GDP grew by 2.6% year-on-year in the third quarter of 2025, which means:
→ a significant beat compared with analysts’ expectations of just 0.5% year-on-year growth;
→ Canada avoided a technical recession (two consecutive quarters of contraction) following a 1.8% decline in the previous quarter.
The release triggered a strong rally in the Canadian dollar, as markets may have concluded that the Bank of Canada has less need to support the economy with additional liquidity, making the loonie more attractive to hold.
On the other hand, the unexpected GDP rise may partly be a statistical artefact linked to calculation methodology and the impact of tariffs introduced into global trade by the Trump administration. It is possible that GDP grew due to falling imports — meaning that even with strong headline numbers, the underlying economy may remain fragile.
Technical Analysis of USD/CAD
On Friday, the USD/CAD rate fell to its lowest level in a month.
The price then rebounded (as shown by the arrow) from the lower boundary of the channel that has been in place for most of the autumn. This bounce not only confirmed the relevance of the channel but also highlighted strong buying interest around 1.3940.
But should the bulls feel confident?
Note that:
→ throughout November, the price repeatedly slipped below 1.4000 — and each time failed to consolidate beneath this psychological level;
→ Friday’s bearish breakout looked exceptionally strong, with wide bearish candles closing near their lows, signalling clear dominance by sellers;
→ the 50% retracement of the A→B impulse sits near 1.4000.
Given these factors, it is entirely possible that 1.4000 will act as resistance in the short term, and that bears will attempt to resume the downward trend in USD/CAD.
