eur/cad forming inverse Head & Shoulders for 350 pips target (16th September, 2022)
- :
attached is the chart of eur/cad, daily & 4 hourly.
Rationale:
Technical View:
- above is the daily eur/cad pair chart, forming the inverse head & shoulders with volume spikes on right shoulder confirming the higher chances of breakout upwards with RSI above moving average and above 60 indicating the momentum upwards & the pair to go up for at least 200 to 350 pips after the break of the pattern.
- below is the 4 hourly chart of eur/cad which is forming & almost breaking the ascending triangle (pink lines) which is confirming the above case of inverse head & shoulders breaking upwards.
Fundamental View (Macroeconomics View) :
- BOC (Bank Of Canada) has been aggressively raising rates for months now & currently reside @ 3.25 & we are expecting that only one more 25bps hike & it will be pivot for BOC.
- apart from that Canada housing market has been posting some of the worst data possible with not even a 1 new home sale in some months which is weighing on Canadian dollar.
- on the other hand ECB is also raising rates aggressively now to curb the inflation at historic pace ever , currently @ 1.25 & they will be raising rates more aggressively in coming months with pivot of atleast 2.50 to 3 which is 125bps more from current rates.
- so BOC will be restrictive in raising rates & ECB will be the aggressive one so rationale says to chase eur/cad instead of eur/usd or usd/cad directly. go for cross.
Plan :
buy the pair, eur/cad between 1.31800-1.32000 for the target of 1.36200
