Today\u2019s soft touch of 0.9815\/30, where a pivot line from January-February 2014 met a 1-year channel support trendline, is showing signs of restraint from sellers to dig even deeper after such a volatile tumble. With Canadian Core CPI and Wholesale Sales just around the corner, both with somewhat bullish expectations, it is possible this news has already been priced in and sellers are taking profit ahead of time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">AUD\/CAD is trading around 0.9842 half-way into the 9\/18 U.S. trading session, apparently bouncing off the support cluster. Stochastic declined in extreme oversold territory as of late, signaling a potential temporary bottom might form in this area. A daily close above 0.9830, followed by a bullish continuation above 0.9875 on Friday 19<sup>th<\/sup> September, could bring buyers back for a re-test of 0.9936, up to 1.0015 at most (where rallies will be certainly capped by the all important 200-Day Moving Average).<\/p><div id=\"inves-2590210906\" class=\"inves-in-content inves-entity-placement\"><hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads_header\">\r\n<p style=\"font-size:10px; float:left; color:#666;\">Free Reports:<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads\"> \r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/graph_techs_PD.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t     <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><b><u>Get Our Free Metatrader 4 Indicators<\/u><\/b><\/a> - Put Our Free MetaTrader 4 Custom Indicators on your charts when you join our Weekly Newsletter<\/p><br><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/cot_pie_80.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t    <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><b><u>Get our Weekly Commitment of Traders Reports<\/u><\/b><\/a> - See where the biggest traders (Hedge Funds and Commercial Hedgers) are positioned in the futures markets on a weekly basis.<\/p><br><br>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<br><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the other hand, if this sell-off continues post\u00a0Core CPI and Wholesale Sales, AUD\/CAD will begin to target a Fibonacci cluster at 0.9760, with longer term bearish potential extending as low as 0.9600\/17 in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p>*********<br \/>\nPrepared by Alex Z., Chief Currency Strategist at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.capitaltrustmarkets.com\">Capital Trust Markets<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technical Sentiment: Bearish Key Takeaways AUD\/CAD reached a major support cluster as volatility died down; Canadian Core CPI due on Friday \u2013 bullish expectations at 0.2%; Wholesale Sales, also bullish, expected to rise to 0.6% vs. 0.4% in August; 0.9815\/30 is the critical handle right now.
