Rob,

Keep a close eye on equities for whether USDCAD will extend gains past 1.2650s. The high was 1.2640s. If US stocks do better this time, then USDCAD has fewer chances of hitting 1.2660s any time soon. BUT, the concentration of event risk from Wed til Fri suggests plenty of opportunities for selling CAD. TL support at 1.2420s. EURUSD support at 1.3070s. but more likely to see 1.30 before 1.37

Hey Ashraf -

I'm with you on the 100+ pips - time to take our money and run? Looks like the selling should extend into the Asian session and push USD/CAD even above 1.2700 - perhaps I'm a little too optimistic, though.

Euro targeting 1.3000, are you sticking with that as mentioned in your interview?
Thanks

ROB, USDCAD is already up 100 pips and its likely to break 1.26 today.

TAHA, correlation measures the relationship. if it is a HIGH number close to 1.00 it means it goes up as the other one goes up, and when it is NEGATIVE it means nthe opposite.

Hi Ashraf ,
I am not expert or professional . I am just begginer , So could you explain (the relatively high correlation of -0.72 between USDCAD and S&P500 Year-to-Date) ? .
Thank you .
