The market is waiting for the US inflation data
USDCAD is correcting upwards, trading around 1.269. The Canadian currency has been actively increasing in value against the US dollar for almost the entire week; however, in the end, it lost all the gained positions, which was caused by two main factors.
First of all, the Bank of Canada released a report on financial stability, which reflected the main points of vulnerability of the national economic system. The regulator noted the negative dynamics of housing prices, which have grown by more than 50% since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic and until now. In addition, the country has recorded an increase in the number of heavily indebted households, which in the near future may face an even greater burden due to rising interest rates on loans.
The second reason for the growth of USDCAD is the strengthening of the US dollar, which reached 103 in the USD Index. In turn, market participants almost did not react to another increase in the number of Initial Jobless Claims, which amounted to 229K against 202K a week earlier. Key expectations of investors are related to today's data on consumer inflation in the US, which may increase by 0.7% over the month and remain at 8.3% in annual terms. On the global chart of the asset, the price continues to trade within a wide ascending channel with dynamic boundaries of 1.2450–1.3100, having reached the support line the day before. The fluctuation range of the Alligator indicator EMAs began to actively narrow, and the histogram of the AO oscillator is forming new ascending bars, actively rising in the sell zone.
Support levels: 1.2630, 1.2463 | Resistance levels: 1.2730, 1.2890
