During the Friday's Asian session we could observe the price pushing higher toward 0.9870 level (100EMA resistance). Therefore during the European session the USD/CAD pair did not manage to hold this level and price started pushing lower. In the late New York session the major started trading in a sideways movement.Today during the Asian session the price continued to be traded in a sideways move. We expect the price go lower today in European and New York session. Presently we can observe the end of the 5 wave. In accordance with our wave rules and taking into account that the wave 5 retraces 138.2% of the wave 1 with Take Profit at 0.9767 (138.2% of wave 1). For Stop Loss the resistance level at 0.9845 can be used.Also it is necessary to consider the data concerning the U.S. Core PCE Price Index m/m, Personal Spending m/m, Chicago PMI and CAD GDP m/m, Gov Council Member Lane Speaks, RMPI m/m that can affect the rate of the pair.
