USD/CAD Analysis
It appears that this pair is just consolidating between about 1.2950 and 1.3100.
In the current fearful environment it is hard to see the Canadian Dollar moving much higher anytime soon, in spite of the long-term trend.
However the resistance at 1.3133 seems to be well defended, but I think it will break before 1.2943.
There is nothing due concerning the CAD. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of Crude Oil Inventories data at 3:30pm London time.
