thanks. In theory it may get back to 2009 levels and beyond. 1.125 getting closer...major correction there

excess capacity as potential risk for low inflation. On the other hand, the governor was happy about the pace of US recovery and increased demand of Canadian orders/exports. Most of the strategy to improve household debt is based upon the capacity of Canada to grow exploiting a favourable exchange rate. In other words, US will help Canada with exchange rate. Next move will be an increase of interest rate imho but this will probably happen next year.

Yes, I may scale out of the fresh long 1.100 nearing that level then scaling in after correction.

{quote} What theory exactly?
theory is that price broke decisively major psychological level at 1.1 and opened a new scenario whereas the precedent can only date back to 2009. This opens a possibility to get to 1.3

I want to long this, but I can see no retracement to do so. Looks like the Goldman Sachs forecast was not too far fetched this time.
Fix up, trade sharp ...

if it gets to 1.125 I expect a major retracement to 1.0735. That could be a good level to buy again imho in a medium term perspective.

Thanks for your idea Greener. There is some resistance above due to the old 2009 high. If this can be broken, maybe we really see the 1,4?

1.1 was supposed to be a major resistance and has been smashed...1.4 is possible...anything is possible.

I personally don't think it will get there as Canadian low inflation is mainly the result of excess capacity and low commodity prices. Moreover US growth has broadened. As a result, Canada is selling more and receiving more orders. I would play around 1.2 top. Consensus for this year is between 1.14-16 which at these levels implies some major correction towards 1.08-1.07 or even 1.06 levels. We might see an increase in interest rates before the year end if US continues to grow. Low inflation is temporary in my view.
I would also pay attention to what's happening in Syria as that could be a major game changer.

i am out but watching if any reaction happens between 1.1 and 1.125-30. I am expecting a big one. if not, Goldman tp is next.
Good chance Goldman target is reached in the first quarter due to current deals between US and Canada in the resources sector.
