Current trend
The USD/CAD pair shows ambiguous dynamics, holding near the level of 1.3540 ahead of the US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s speech at the regulator’s annual symposium in Jackson Hole.
Market participants hope that the official will clarify the details of another interest rate hike this year, which is currently predicted with a probability of about 36.0%. Experts believe that in September, the agency will almost certainly leave the figure at 5.50%. Some pressure on the position of the currency is exerted by macroeconomic statistics: sales in the secondary housing market in July decreased by 2.2% from 4.16M to 4.07M, although analysts expected a slight slowdown to 4.15M. Today, investors will pay attention to the August business activity index from S&P Global: forecasts suggest a moderate increase in manufacturing PMI from 49.0 points to 49.3 points and the service PMI may decrease from 52.3 points to 52.2 points.
In Canada, data on retail sales will be published on Wednesday: in June, experts expect zero dynamics of the indicator after a modest increase of 0.2% earlier, and excluding car sales, the value may rise from 0.0% to 0.3%.
Support and resistance
On the daily chart, Bollinger Bands grow steadily: the price range narrows, reflecting the ambiguous nature of trading in the ultra-short term. The MACD indicator falls, formed a new sell signal (the histogram is below the signal line). Stochastic is retreating from its highs, confirming the development of a downtrend soon.
Resistance levels: 1.3550, 1.3573, 1.3600, 1.3650.
Support levels: 1.3500, 1.3450, 1.3400, 1.3350.
