Ukrainian President Zelensky: Ukraine is working to resume prisoner exchanges with Russia.On November 16th, according to a report by the US-based "Defense News" website on November 14th, US Army Secretary Driscoll stated on the 12th that the US defense industry, especially major arms contractors, has "deceived" the American people, the Department of Defense, and the Army, resulting in damage to the interests of the US military. Reuters pointed out that for a long time, US government accountability officials and some members of Congress have believed that contractors are overcharging the military. Under the current supply method, the US Army cannot purchase a single screen control knob for a Black Hawk helicopter separately; it must spend $47,000 to purchase the entire set including the knob, while manufacturing the knob separately would only cost $15. The report noted that it is rare for a current US government official to use "unusually blunt" language to publicly criticize arms contractors.On November 16, it was reported that the U.S. Navy, together with the forces of Trinidad and Tobago, will conduct military exercises in waters near Venezuela from November 16 to 21.

USD/CAD Bears Anticipate Additional Losses Towards $1.34

Following a three-day losing trend, the USD/CAD continues to trade near the weekly low around 1.3440 in the early hours of Thursday.

 

In doing so, the Loonie pair justifies yesterday's pullback from the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the February-March uptrend, as well as yesterday's retreat from the 100-bar Exponential Moving Average (EMA), in conjunction with negative MACD signals.

 

Notably, the RSI (14) line is approaching the oversold region, indicating the USD/CAD exchange rate has limited downside potential.

 

Consequently, a horizontal area containing multiple lows marked since March 3 around 1.3400 becomes the most crucial support for pair traders to track. In addition, the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level encircling 1.3390 provides immediate support.

 

A irregular decline towards February's low of 1.3262 cannot be ruled out if the USD/CAD defies RSI conditions and descends below 1.3390.

 

In contrast, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level around 1.3490, also known as the golden Fibonacci ratio, restricts immediate USD/CAD recovery movements prior to the 1.3535 100-exponential moving average (EMA) barrier.

 

If the USD/CAD exchange rate remains firmer than 1.3535, a convergence of the 200-exponential moving average (EMA) and 50% Fibonacci retracement around 1.3565 will pose a formidable obstacle for buyers.

 

At the time of publication, USD/CAD investors should remain cautious unless they observe a clear break above the previous support line from early February, which was near 1.3670.
