USD/CAD Price Forecast: Remains subdued around 1.3650 due to persistent bearish bias
- USD/CAD may test initial support at the eight-month low at 1.3539.
- The 14-day RSI remains below 50, strengthening bearish bias.
- The primary resistance appears at the nine-day EMA of 1.3682.
The USD/CAD pair remains steady after registering over 0.50% losses in the previous session, trading around 1.3650 during the Asian hours on Friday. A persistent bearish sentiment is prevailing as the pair moves sideways within the descending channel pattern, suggested by the technical analysis of the daily chart.
The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains below the 50 level, reinforcing bearish pressure. Additionally, the USD/CAD pair has moved below the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), suggesting that short-term momentum is weaker.
The USD/CAD pair may find primary support near the eight-month low at 1.3539, which was recorded on June 16. A break below this level could weaken the price momentum and put downward pressure on the pair to navigate the region around the lower boundary of the descending channel around 1.3460, followed by 1.3419, the lowest since February 2024.
On the upside, the USD/CAD pair may target the primary barrier at the nine-day EMA of 1.3682. A breach above this level would strengthen the short-term price momentum and support the pair to approach the descending channel’s upper boundary around 1.3780, followed by the 50-day EMA at 1.3803. Further advances would improve the medium-term price momentum and prompt the pair to test the two-month high of 1.4016, which was reached on May 13.
