USD/CAD Price Forecast: Falls to near 1.3550, 15-month lows
- USD/CAD may target initial support at 1.3539, its lowest level since October 2024.
- The 14-day Relative Strength Index at 26 signals oversold conditions and heavy selling pressure.
- The primary resistance sits at the nine-day EMA 1.3716.
USD/CAD moves little after registering nearly 1% losses in the previous session, trading around 1.3570 during the European hours on Wednesday. The technical analysis of the daily chart shows the pair extends below the falling nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 1.3715 and the 50-day EMA at 1.3818, maintaining a bearish tone.
The short-term average tracks beneath the medium-term gauge, reinforcing downside risk. Below the nine-day EMA and 50-day EMA, rallies would remain capped, and the trend favors lower highs.
The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 26 (oversold), which warns of stretched selling pressure, though an uptick back above 30 could trigger a brief pause. Momentum remains weak with RSI sub-30, so rebounds could be corrective rather than trend-changing.
The USD/CAD pair may target the initial support at 1.3539, the lowest since October 2024. Further decline will expose the next support at 1.3419, the lowest since February 2024.
On the upside, the primary resistance lies at the nine-day EMA of 1.3716, followed by the 50-day EMA at 1.3818. A break above these averages would cause the emergence of a bullish bias and support the USD/CAD pair to target the seven-week high of 1.3928, reached on January 16.
