Canadian Dollar Update April 22, 2019
USD/CAD Open: 1.3368-1.3369 Overnight Range: 1.3354-1.3403
The Canadian dollar was rangebound in overnight currency exchange markets. Oil is at $65.36 and gold is at $1,278. US markets are lower. There are no releases scheduled for today’s session.
The short-term USD/CAD technicals are neutral-bearish. For today, USD resistance is at 1.3392. Support is at 1.3341.
The Canadian dollar has followed oil prices higher earlier in today’s session. WTI crude oil has improved over 2% from last week’s prices, as the exemption granted to certain countries to import Iranian oil is expected to end. Last Thursday’s retail sales data in both Canada and the US handily beat expectations, quieting recent concerns calling for an economic slowdown. Event risk for this week is centered around Wednesday’s Bank of Canada meeting and MPR update, where a hold is expected. There are no domestic releases scheduled for today.
Today’s Suggested Range USD/CAD: 1.3300 – 1.3400
