"The Fed delivered a message with a hawkish tinge. Despite this, U.S. equities gained and the financial markets were overall calm in their reaction. The fact that risk appetite was retained was key to the dollar's strength, in addition to the rise in Treasury yields." 
- Mizuho Securities (based on CNBC) 

Pair's Outlook 
The US Dollar took another step to reaching the 2004 high against its Canadian counterpart. However, the rally was not as high as anticipated, with the pair barely stabilising at 1.3780. The Buck is poised to extend its gains and reach the touch the 2004 high before the year ends. The only obstacle on the USD/CAD's path is now a rather strong cluster, represented by the Bollinger band, the weekly R1 and the monthly R3. Meanwhile, technical indicators retain mixed signals, creating a possibility of a downside correction to 1.37. 

Traders' Sentiment 
The short positions and the sell orders are equal in their shares. There are currently 73% of traders being short the Buck and 73% of orders to sell the US currency.
