USD/CAD confined to a range in quiet trade
|By FXStreet USD/CAD is trading a tad lower on Monday, as the risk on sentiment and higher oil prices underpinned the loonie, although moves lacked follow-through amid thin liquidity due to the US Presidents’ Day.
USD/CAD dipped briefly below the 1.38 mark and scored a 6-day low of 1.3797. However, the loonie lost momentum and USD/CAD settled in a limited range over the last hours, with the 1.3850 area capping the upside. At time of writing, the pair is trading at 1.3829, still 0.14% below its opening price.
USD/CAD levels to watch
