No doubt that the main driver of the pair will be NFP, but take into consideration the Canadian data as well.
Elsewhere, OPEC+ decision to prolong oil output cuts moved oil prices upwards. As a result, the resurgence of crude oil impacted positively the commodity-sensitive loonie as Canada is one of the world’s largest oil exporters.
The pair is trading in a downtrend, and the moving averages moving in descending order just confirm it. Looking at the last candlesticks, we may notice a lot of indecision. The price is stuck between 1.2850 and 1.2875. However, it’s just the calm before the storm. Upcoming economic reports will shake this pair definitely. The positive Canadian data and the negative US data will drive the pair down. Otherwise – up. If USD/CAD jumps above the top of this range, it may surge to the key psychological mark of 1.2900.
