Trading Signal for USD/CAD for July 05 - 06, 2021: Sell Below 1.2393

The USD / CAD pair after breaking its uptrend channel last Friday is now trading below this zone and below the 21 SMA. It maintains a bearish bias for the next few days.

The 6/8 murray zone has now turned into strong resistance for the Canadian Dollar. On June 18 and last week, this level has proven to be a very strong obstacle. Since it is now below the SMA of 21, we expect a pullback for a continuation of the bearish movement.

The strength of the Canadian dollar was because of the US non-farm payrolls (NFP). The US employment increased by 850,000 in June. However, due to a downtick in the jobless rate, the dollar struggled to continue outperforming its rivals. The US dollar index lost its footing amid the fall of the bonds.

However, the market had already discounted this fact. So, a few days later the US dollar (USDX) reached levels of 92.73. After the publication of the NFPs, we saw a downward correction of the US dollar. The Canadian dollar took advantage of it. As a result, USD / CAD climbed and left overbought levels, breaking a 4-hour bullish channel.

In the chart above, we have drawn a zone where you can sell this pair. If USD / CAD consolidates below 1.2393, there is a possibility of a short-term decline to EMA 200 zone of support located at 1.2192.

The eagle indicator is showing a bearish signal. Any attempt to rise to resistance levels of 1.2373 or 1.2393 (SMA 21) will be a good selling opportunity. Above 1.2400 we must avoid selling.
