USD/CAD Price Forecast: Holds above 1.3700 to test nine-day EMA
- USD/CAD may fall toward the descending channel support at 1.3560.
- The 14-day Relative Strength Index falls to 44, signaling strengthening bearish momentum.
- The immediate barrier lies at the nine-day EMA of 1.3714.
USD/CAD continues its winning streak for the fourth successive day, trading around 1.3710 during the early European hours on Friday. However, the technical analysis of the daily chart indicates the pair is remaining within the descending channel pattern, signaling a persistent bearish bias.
The USD/CAD pair holds a modest bearish near-term bias as spot remains capped under the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the 50-day EMA. The pair has been fading from last month’s highs while the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) slips to 44, hinting at strengthening bearish momentum and leaving the downside vulnerable as long as price trades beneath these overlapping EMA barriers.
On the downside, the USD/CAD pair may navigate the region around the lower boundary of the descending channel around 1.3560. A sustained break below the channel would reinforce the bearish bias and put downward pressure on the pair to fall toward 1.3473, the lowest since September 2024.
The immediate barrier lies at the nine-day EMA of 1.3714, followed by the 50-day EMA at 1.3750, aligned with the upper descending channel boundary. Further advances above this confluence resistance zone would cause the emergence of the bullish bias and support the USD/CAD pair to explore the region around the four-month high of 1.3967, reached in December 2025.
