USD/CAD can be trapped in a triangle – More weakness after completed A-B-C-D-E waves [Video]

Gregor Horvat Wavetraders

USDCAD is reversing south after an unsuccessful push above 2022 highs, so it appears that pair is back in the range after making the first impulsive drop to 1.3450 back in August. Notice that after that drop in A, price rallied in wave (B) as expected, and stoped perfectly at 1.36 area as discussed in past updates. But notice that pair is actually now sideways, and back in 200 pip range, rather than bearish, so it appears that this can be a triangle with more weakness in view, but after A-B-C-D-E legs are completed. We still think that sooner or later USDCAD can drop to July 2023 trendline.

USD/JPY consolidates near 157.50 as a bullish USD counters intervention risks

USD/JPY struggles to capitalize on the overnight bounce from a one-week low, consolidating around 157.50 in the Asian session on Tuesday. Trump's concerns about the Japanese Yen's weakness fueled speculation about another US-Japan joint intervention. This, along with the hawkish BoJ, underpins the JPY and caps the currency pair. Meanwhile, rising Fed rate-hike bets and oil-driven inflation fears continue to push US bond yields to multi-year highs, keeping the US Dollar pinned near a two-month high and supporting the pair.
