FxWirePro: AUD/CAD hovers around 200-DMA support at 1.0020, good to go short on break below

  • AUD/CAD capped below 20-DMA, intraday bias remains lower.
  • The pair is currently holding 200-DMA support at 1.0020, break below will see further drag.
  • The Canadian dollar supported by BoC positive statements post meeting where it held rates unchanged overnight.
  • Brent oil regained bid tone in Asia to trade above the $54.00 mark on speculation the OPEC is set to extend the oil output cut deal by nine months.
  • Oil prices up over 1% on the day, keep the CAD buoyed. Investors largely ignored a smaller-than-expected US gasoline stocks draw.
  • Momentum studies are bearish, break below 200-DMA will see test of 0.9925 (April 12 low)

Support levels - 1.0020 (200-DMA), 0.9995 (50% Fibo 0.9644 to 1.0345 rise), 0.9925 (April 12 low)

Resistance levels - 1.0072(5-DMA), 1.0129 (20-DMA), 1.0165 (May 18 low)

Recommendation: Good to go short on break below 200-DMA, TP: 0.9995/ 0.9925
