FxWirePro: EUR/CAD capped below 61.8% Fib, bearish divergence adds downside bias

  • Upbeat Euro area PMI reports and German IFO data continue to underpin the Euro.
     
  • The Canadian dollar buoyed as oil extends upside to hit multi-week highs at 51.76.
     
  • EUR/CAD remains capped below 61.8% Fibo 1.6105 to 1.3784 fall at 1.5218. Upside only on break above.
     
  • Looking ahead, all eyes remain on the ECB Draghi’s speech due later today for fresh hints on tapering.
     
  • Draghi’s failure to provide any cues on exiting the ultra-loose monetary policy program will weigh on the euro.
     
  • Further, price action is showing a bearish divergence from RSI and Stochs which adds to the downside bias.

Support levels - 1.5082 (1H 200-SMA), 1.5002 (20-DMA), 1.4944 (50% Fibo 1.6105 to 1.3784 fall)

Resistance levels - 1.5126 (5-DMA), 1.5218 (61.8% Fib), 1.5281 (Nov 9 high)

Recommendation: Watch out for break below 20-DMA to go short.
