USDCAD a New Down Trend has Started?BOC Monetary policy decision today
The -25bp cut was expected, but the forward guidance is significantly more hawkish than markets anticipated.
Breaking It Down
The Dovish Elements
1. Delivered 25bp cut (2.5% → 2.25%)
2. Acknowledged weak growth
3. Recognized soft labor market
The Hawkish Elements
1. "Current policy rate at about the right level" This is a terminal rate signal
2. Core inflation "sticky around 3%" acknowledgment
3. September CPI "slightly higher than anticipated"
4. "Limits the role that monetary policy can play" . In other words : cutting more is likely worthless
5. Changed from "proceeding carefully" to "we're done unless outlook changes"
6. Removed easing bias entirely
This is net HAWKISH
What Markets Were Pricing Before this:
- This 25bp cut
- Likely another 25bp cut in December or Q1 2026
- Terminal rate around 2.00%
What BOC Just Said:
- Here's your 25bp cut
- That's it, we're done
- Terminal rate is 2.25% (atleast 25bp higher than market expected)
- No more cuts unless "outlook changes"
FOMC is coming up in 30 minutes. Any dovish bias will accelerate this decline establishing a new down-trend. Unless there is a major hawkish turn I would be shorting any rally caused by initial miss-interperation of the statement or the press conference remarks.
COMING UP FOMC DECISION IN 30 MINUTES: I will update this post after the FOMC decision.
USDCAD corrective pullback supported at 1.3900The USDCAD remains in a bullish trend, with recent price action showing signs of a corrective pullback within the broader uptrend.
Support Zone: 1.3900 – a key level from previous consolidation. Price is currently testing or approaching this level.
A bullish rebound from 1.3900 would confirm ongoing upside momentum, with potential targets at:
1.3977 – initial resistance
1.3990 – psychological and structural level
1.4010 – extended resistance on the longer-term chart
Bearish Scenario:
A confirmed break and daily close below 1.3900 would weaken the bullish outlook and suggest deeper downside risk toward:
1.3890 – minor support
1.3864 – stronger support and potential demand zone
Outlook:
Bullish bias remains intact while the USDCAD holds above 1.3900. A sustained break below this level could shift momentum to the downside in the short term.

When Winning Feels UnsafeNOTE – This is a post on mindset and emotion. It is not a trade idea or strategy designed to make you money. My intention is to help you preserve your capital, focus, and composure so you can trade your own system with calm and confidence.
You’re in profit.
The trade’s working.
Your system’s doing exactly what it should.
But instead of ease, something tightens.
A flicker of doubt.
You can hear that inner voice: “Don’t mess this up. You wouldn’t want to give this back now would you? How much is enough anyway?”
You scan the chart again.
Check your unrealized PnL.
Move the stop closer.
Start managing… what doesn’t need managing.
Here’s what’s really happening:
Your subconscious is remembering what happened the last time you saw success…
The time you relaxed and it reversed.
The time you felt proud and someone cut you down.
The time you won and it didn’t last.
So even when the market moves in your favour, part of you braces.
Waiting for the other shoe to drop.
So that voice saying, don’t mess this up - is actually a memory trying to protect you.
And in so doing, never really lets you feel safe
The point here is that your work as a trader is to be in the here and now. Not in the past.
Be cognisant to the cues of your memory and body that don’t work in your favour.
So when you notice tension rising,
Take one slow breath. Feel your feet on the floor. And repeat. ‘Right here, right now’.
And then …
Follow your trade plan.
Stay true to your trading plan.
Manage your risk
And let the market do what it does.

Buyers are showing strength around the entry level, suggesting sustained bullish sentiment. As long as price holds above 1.3888, momentum favors continuation toward the 1.4068 target.
USD/CAD: Bears Take Control as 200DMA CracksFrom a technical standpoint, the short-term directional bias for USD/CAD is now swinging lower. While the longer-term uptrend remains firmly in place, the pair now finds itself in a minor downtrend, grinding lower for much of the past few weeks. Ahead of the FOMC and BoC decisions, the latest leg lower through minor support at 1.3980 saw it breach and close beneath the 200-day moving average.
One glance at the charts underlines just how important the level has been this year, capping and supporting the price for long periods once crossed. Now sitting above the pair with a negative slope, it may embolden bears to seek out further downside, allowing for setups where stops can be placed above it to protect against the risk of an abrupt reversal. For those considering bearish setups on the break, the preference would be to see a retest and rejection at the 200-day moving average before entry, with a sustained push beneath 1.3940 only enhancing the merits of the trade.
1.3900 looms as an initial target given it acted as both support and resistance earlier this year. With the 50-day moving average found just below it, the confluence of these levels will likely provide a decent hurdle for bears, should the price get there. 1.3830 is a minor level found below with the July uptrend sitting around the same region today.
Should the break of the 200-day moving average prove to be a bear trap with a reversal soon to follow, the favoured bearish setup could be flipped, allowing for longs to be established above with a stop below for protection. Again, if a reversal were to take place, the preference would be to see a back-test and bounce from the 200-day before entering the trade. 1.3980 looms as the first potential target with 1.4050 and 1.4080 options after that.
The momentum picture has changed noticeably over the past fortnight, with RSI (14) now trending lower beneath 50, indicating slowly building downside pressure. MACD has also staged a bearish crossover of the signal line but remains in positive territory, providing a cautionary message to bulls that directional strength is shifting.
Good luck!
