The Canadian Federal elections are to be held today and there seems to be a wide interest in the elections in contrast to the past, which tends to increase the uncertainty of the outcome, while the \u201cTrump\u201d factor tends to favour the Liberals. For the time being, expectations are for the Liberals to win an absolute majority, which could have a short-term impact on the CAD, while a surprise win of the Conservatives may cause the CAD to rally. Over in China, the Chinese Government has implied that there have not been calls with the US recently in regards to trade negotiations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EUR\/USD appears to be moving in a predominantly upwards trajectory, however we would not be surprised to see the pair possibly aiming for lower ground in the short term. Nonetheless, we opt for a predominantly bullish outlook and supporting our case is the RSI indicator below our chart which currently registers a figure close to 60 implying a bullish market sentiment. Yet the retreat of the indicator from 70 to 60, may imply that the bullish momentum could be fading. Nonetheless, for our bullish outlook to continue, we would require a clear break above our 1.1470 (R1) resistance line with the next possible target for the bulls being the 1.1685 (R2) resistance level. On the other hand, for a sideways bias we would require the pair to remain confined between the 1.1185 (S1) support level and the 1.1470 (R1) resistance line. Lastly, for a bearish outlook we would require a clear break below the 1.1185 (S1) support level, with the next possible target for the bears being the 1.0950 (S2) support line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

USD\/CAD appears to be moving in a predominantly downwards direction. We opt for a bearish outlook for the pair and supporting our case is the RSI indicator below our chart which currently registers a figure close to 40 implying a bearish market sentiment. For our bearish outlook to continue we would require a clear break below the 1.3830 (S1) support level with the next possible target for the bears being the 1.3618 (S2) support line. On the other hand, for a sideways bias we would require the pair to remain confined between the 1.3830 (S1) support level and the 1.4025 (R1) resistance level. Lastly, for a bullish outlook we would require a clear break above the 1.4025 (R1) resistance line, with the next possible target for the bulls being the 1.4235 (R2) resistance level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
