The CAD is showing a marginal gain on the USD on the session. Economists at Scotiabank expect the USD/CAD pair to test support at 1.3325, then 1.3275.

Technical risks are tilted lower

“The ceiling of the trading band at 1.3450 has been fairly solid over the past week and we still rather think technical risks are tilted lower following the early Dec breakdown from the USD’s late 2022 1.35/1.37 range; these factors (plus developing bearish momentum on the intraday chart) load the dice against the USD to some extent in the short run.”

“Look for a test of USD support at 1.3325, followed by 1.3275.”
