- USD/CAD gains some positive traction on Monday amid some follow-through USD buying.
- Bets for another 25 bps Fed rate hike in June push the US bond yields higher and the USD.
- Bullish Crude Oil prices underpin the Loonie and might cap any further gains for the pair.
The pair currently trades last at 1.34361.
The previous day high was 1.3452 while the previous day low was 1.3407. The daily 38.2% Fib levels comes at 1.3424, expected to provide support. Similarly, the daily 61.8% fib level is at 1.3435, expected to provide support.
The USD/CAD pair attracts some buying near the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) on Monday and sticks to its modest intraday gains through the early part of the European session. The pair currently trades around the 1.3430-1.3435 region, up nearly 0.10% for the day, and for now, seems to have snapped a three-day losing streak to the 1.3400 mark, or a nearly three-week low touched on Friday.
The US Dollar (USD) gains some follow-through traction for the second successive day and turns out to be a key factor acting as a tailwind for the USD/CAD pair. Despite the mixed US monthly employment details, the markets area still pricing in another 25 bps lift-off by the Federal Reserve (Fed) later this month. This remains supportive of a further rise in the US Treasury bond yields and pushes the Greenback higher on the first day of a new week. That said, the prevalent risk-on mood might hold back traders from placing aggressive bullish bets around the safe-haven buck.
The markets continue to cheer the optimism over the passage of legislation to lift the government’s $31.4 trillion debt ceiling to avert an unprecedented American default. Adding to this, a private-sector survey showed on Monday that China’s services activity picked up in May and boosted investors’ confidence, which is evident from a generally positive tone around the equity markets. This, along with an intraday rally in Crude Oil prices, which tends to underpin the commodity-linked Loonie, further contributes to capping any meaningful upside for the USD/CAD pair.
In fact, Oil prices opened with a bullish gap on Monday in reaction to an OPEC+ agreement over the weekend to extend at least 3.66 million bpd of cuts till end-2024 from end-2023. Adding to this, Saudi Arabia pledged to cut its production by about 1 million bpd in July to 9 million bpd and lends additional support to the black liquid. This, in turn, makes it prudent to wait for a strong follow-through buying around the USD/CAD pair before positioning for any further appreciating move ahead of the release of the US ISM Services PMI later during the early North American session.
