Ideal trades always occur when you have several
indicators lining up at the same time. As we all know indicators are typically
ineffective when used in isolation - the combination of several analysis
techniques is usually more robust.
Case in point, USD/CAD. First, for those not
aware, USD/CAD is positively correlated with the Dollar Index (DXC) - i.e. if
DXC is trading lower, it is highly likely that USD/CAD is too. The opposite is
true for EUR/USD.
That being said, the chart below suggests that on
a short-term basis, DXC has out in a low and will likely move higher.
In addition, our short-term reversal levels (STRL's)
at 86.50 & 86.44 also suggest that short-term bottom is in place.
USD/CAD has almost an identical pattern.
Keep an eye on the 1.1330 level, it should offer
a decent long entry point.
