USD/CAD treads water around 1.3330 during early Wednesday, following a volatile day that initially refreshed two-week bottom before bouncing off the 1.3270 support confluence to end the day near 1.3337. In doing so, the Loonie pair portrayed a bullish Doji candlestick on Tuesday.

Not only the candlestick and the recovery from the convergence of the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a three-month-old ascending trend line but steady RSI (14) and a lack of bearish MACD signals also underpin the bullish bias for the USD/CAD pair.

That said, the 21-day EMA level surrounding 1.3385 guards immediate USD/CAD rebound ahead of the 1.3400 round figure and the monthly peak of near 1.3475.

Following that, a run-up towards the January 19 swing high of 1.3520 and then to the previous monthly high near 1.3685 can’t be ruled out.

On the flip side, the aforementioned support confluence challenges the USD/CAD bears around 1.3270, a break of which will need validation from the lows marked in February 2023 and November 2022, respectively near 1.3260 and 1.3225, to convince Loonie pair bears.

Even so, the 1.3200 threshold could act as the last defense of the pair buyers.

Overall, USD/CAD is up for a short-term rebound but the buyers seek validation from the 21-day EMA.

AUD/USD sits at two-month lows near 0.6950 after Australian CPI data

AUD/USD is sitting at two-month lows near 0.6950 in the Asian session on Wednesday, as below-expectations August Australian underlying CPI data pours cold water on expectations for further RBA interest rate hikes. Chinese PMI data also fail to inspire the Australian Dollar, despite a pause in the US Dollar advance.

USD/JPY stays weak below 157.00 amid Japanese intervention risks

USD/JPY keeps losses below 157.00 in the Asian session on Wednesday, as hawkish BoJ expectations, along with intervention risks, underpin the Japanese Yen, countering dismal domestic factory output and retail sales data. Meanwhile, a broad US Dollar retreat also collaborates to the pair's downside.

Gold flat lines below $4,200 as traders await US PCE data for Fed rate cues

Gold extends its consolidative price move heading into the European session, trading below the $4,200 mark amid mixed fundamental cues. Falling US bond yields drag the US Dollar away from the two-month high, touched on Tuesday, and act as a tailwind for the commodity. However, hawkish US Federal Reserve expectations cap the upside as traders await important US macro data before placing fresh directional bets on the non-yielding bullion.

Aave Price consolidates below $161 as profit-taking emerges after 10% surge

Aave slips below $161 on Wednesday after surging more than 10% the previous day, with on-chain data suggesting increased profit-taking. Meanwhile, Aave founder Stani Kulechov is considering an AAVE token-burn mechanism under Aavenomics 3.0, adding a potential catalyst for AAVE.

Warning: The RBI's October rate hike may be too late as oil risks mount

The Indian Rupee (INR) is one of the worst-performing Asian currencies in 2026, down about 6.5% year-to-date against the US Dollar (USD) and trading near historic lows ahead of the October 5–7 Reserve Bank of India (RBI) meeting. Economists expect the RBI to raise its repo rate by 25 basis points (bps) next month and follow up with another increase in December to counter rising retail inflation.

Silver is more volatile than Gold ahead of PCE and NFP. This chart shows the positioning gap
