CADJPY Consolidates in a narrow Range

The Canadian Dollar has seen some selling pressure as of late, but last week, the BOC once again did not cut rates which the market has largely been expecting. Today we see the CAD continue to sell off even further.

Trader Contest Update

I have not been active in the contest this month. There haven't been any good setups that I like.
The closest I've come was trying to take a long in usdsek and eursek ahead of interest rate decision last week, but I missed the entry by 1 min. The spike up was about 0.10 within 1 min. that translates into 200K profit!
