"Technically, USDCAD looks to be in overbought territory on a daily, weekly and monthly RSI and at time of writing, USDCAD is trading near our daily fair value estimate of 1.2970 with WTI oil sub-$50/bbl. In the meantime, we see initial support around the 1.2915/1.2920 area."
- TD Securities (based on FXStreet)


Pair's Outlook 
On Wednesday, the Greenback surged against its Canadian counterpart and breached the 1.30 barrier. Furthermore, the USD/CAD closed just 20 pips away from the 2009 high, but is yet to conquer that area, as a decline is expected today. The US Dollar is likely to retreat under 1.30, while the possibility of negating yesterday's gains also persists, as the immediate support remains unchanged, namely the weekly PP. Meanwhile, technical studies are giving mixed signs, unable to confirm the probability of a slump today.  

Traders' Sentiment 
Bears keep prevailing over bulls, as 71% of traders are short the Buck today. The portion of buy orders increased from 56 to 59%.
