OIL and CAD

expect the unexpected. market makers exceeded the bravest scepticism about validity of the fundamental news. the news do not play any role any longer. vice versa. the most straightforward news will be traded in the opposite direction. it's a common trick in the market in the last two years, which was bluntly proven yesterday.

OIL and CAD

Today's market opening brought the expected price gap on oil and most currency pairs after the Sunday's OPEC meeting. OIL is deemed to be under preassure for the next few weeks.

Depreciation of the local currency is favourable for the country through stronger competitive position in exports. However, Canada pays a high price of CAD depreciation through falling oil revenues. To stimulate the consumption and growth in the country, the Bank of Canada might take a decision to cut interest rate. The announcement will be held o…
