USD/CAD bias flipped 4 times to bearish on October 13, 2026
The Canadian Dollar has been caught between a softer U.S. Dollar ahead of U.S. CPI and pressure from sliding oil prices and a weak Canada jobs report, with USD/CAD described around 1.4250 and near an 18-month high. Diverging Federal Reserve and Bank of Canada policy expectations are also in focus, while recent sessions have been described as quiet and range-bound.
