The USD/CAD pair started the new week in a calm manner near 1.3600 but lost its traction during the European trading hours reaching a low of 1.3541 and it continued to drop to 1.3531 into the North American session. The USD is currently down 0.33% on the day. The lack of significant macroeconomic data releases on Monday seems to be forcing the US Dollar Index (DXY) to make a technical correction. The DXY rose for the second straight time last week and gained 0.59%. On Monday, the index is down 0.3% at 97.37, allowing the bearish momentum to remain intact. On the other hand, boosted by OPEC's pledge to improve compliance with output cuts, crude oil prices pushed higher with the barrel of WTI posting its highest weekly close in more than three months. At the moment, the WTI is trading just above $40, up around 1% on the day. Currently the TSX is down 0.17% and the DJIA is down 0.01%.. EURCAD is up 0.26% trading between 1.5192 and 1.5255.
