FxWirePro: USD/CAD neutral in the near-term, scope for downward resumption

  • The USD/CAD pair declined on Monday as oil prices rose, while softer-than-expected U.S. data weighed on the greenback.
     
  • Oil edged up for a third straight session, climbing off last week's seven-month lows, but gains were capped by a relentless rise in U.S. supply and bloated global inventories.
     
  • The greenback dipped against a basket of major currencies after new orders for key U.S.-made capital goods unexpectedly fell in May and shipments also declined, suggesting a loss of momentum in the manufacturing sector halfway through the second quarter.
     
  • The ongoing weakness is set to continue for this pair as the resistance level at 1.3314 is likely to act as strong barrier to the bulls and bring a further decline towards lower levels.
     
  • The immediate support can be seen at 1.3210, break below this level will expose the pair to next support level at 1.3189.
     
  • Major resistance can be seen at 1.3314, break above this level will expose the pair towards 1.3348 levels.
