Technical Analysis: Canadian Dollar attempts to arrest further declines after Greenback bidders draw a line in the USD/CAD at 1.3500
The Canadian Dollar (CAD) fell back against the US Dollar (USD) in a broad-market risk rebound that sent the USD/CAD higher after rebounding from the 1.3500 handle.
Near-term bullish momentum remains limited with the USD/CAD getting snagged on the 50-hour Simple Moving Average (SMA), and Monday’s current high bid sits at 1.3560.
Intraday action sees a technical ceiling at the 200-hour SMA near 1.3610, and the figure for Canadian Dollar bidders to beat will be Monday’s bottom bids at 1.3480.
Monday’s pullback brings omens of US Dollar (USD) strength on the daily candlesticks, with the 200-day SMA acting as technical support just above the 1.3500 handle.
Adding to the US Dollar rebound picture, technical indicators are leaning firmly into exhaustion territory, with the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) tapping the lower bound, indicating oversold conditions.
On the other hand, a bullish continuation of the Canadian Dollar’s recent strength will see a fresh run at September’s low bids near 1.3380.

Canadian Dollar FAQs
What key factors drive the Canadian Dollar?
The key factors driving the Canadian Dollar (CAD) are the level of interest rates set by the Bank of Canada (BoC), the price of Oil, Canada’s largest export, the health of its economy, inflation and the Trade Balance, which is the difference between the value of Canada’s exports versus its imports. Other factors include market sentiment – whether investors are taking on more risky assets (risk-on) or seeking safe-havens (risk-off) – with risk-on being CAD-positive. As its largest trading partner, the health of the US economy is also a key factor influencing the Canadian Dollar.
How do the decisions of the Bank of Canada impact the Canadian Dollar?
The Bank of Canada (BoC) has a significant influence on the Canadian Dollar by setting the level of interest rates that banks can lend to one another. This influences the level of interest rates for everyone. The main goal of the BoC is to maintain inflation at 1-3% by adjusting interest rates up or down. Relatively higher interest rates tend to be positive for the CAD. The Bank of Canada can also use quantitative easing and tightening to influence credit conditions, with the former CAD-negative and the latter CAD-positive.
How does the price of Oil impact the Canadian Dollar?
The price of Oil is a key factor impacting the value of the Canadian Dollar. Petroleum is Canada’s biggest export, so Oil price tends to have an immediate impact on the CAD value. Generally, if Oil price rises CAD also goes up, as aggregate demand for the currency increases. The opposite is the case if the price of Oil falls. Higher Oil prices also tend to result in a greater likelihood of a positive Trade Balance, which is also supportive of the CAD.
How does inflation data impact the value of the Canadian Dollar?
While inflation had always traditionally been thought of as a negative factor for a currency since it lowers the value of money, the opposite has actually been the case in modern times with the relaxation of cross-border capital controls. Higher inflation tends to lead central banks to put up interest rates which attracts more capital inflows from global investors seeking a lucrative place to keep their money. This increases demand for the local currency, which in Canada’s case is the Canadian Dollar.
How does economic data influence the value of the Canadian Dollar?
Macroeconomic data releases gauge the health of the economy and can have an impact on the Canadian Dollar. Indicators such as GDP, Manufacturing and Services PMIs, employment, and consumer sentiment surveys can all influence the direction of the CAD. A strong economy is good for the Canadian Dollar. Not only does it attract more foreign investment but it may encourage the Bank of Canada to put up interest rates, leading to a stronger currency. If economic data is weak, however, the CAD is likely to fall.
