Focus Chart of the Day: USD/CAD

The extreme positive sentiment picture in some of the main USD pairs at moment remains a concern and has us wondering whether the Buck can develop any real upside momentum with so much of the market looking for the same thing? This contrarian skepticism is countered a bit by our cyclical analysis which continues to point to general dollar upside in the weeks ahead. What to do? We like shifting some attention to the USD pairs that aren’t exhibiting sentiment extremes as they should be able to develop upside momentum a bit easier if the dollar does turn back up in earnest. One of the more interesting exchange rates on that front at the moment is USD/CAD. Following a successful break of the March high and test of the 127% extension of the March-July decline the pair has undergone what looks like a healthy correction. This has cleared out the negative sentiment situation pushing DSI figures in the CAD to a more neutral 36% Bulls (compared to 9% in GBP or 11% in JPY). A move back through 1.1355 (and possibly even 1.1325) over the next few days would get us excited about an upside resumption. However, sustained weakness under 1.1250 would warn the correction has more room to run.
