USD/CAD wavers above 1.3200
USD/CAD is oscillating between session highs and lows as the loonie tracks movements in oil prices.
USD/CAD fell to a session low of 1.3202 as oil enjoyed a bout of demand, although it failed to break below the 1.32 mark and bounced back to the 1.3240 area in recent dealings. At time of writing, the pair is trading at 1.3225, up 0.18% on the day.
Main focus remains on tomorrow’s Fed decision although oil prices, and therefore the loonie, might get some momentum from API stockpiles data due later today. BoC Governor Poloz is also due to speak in the afternoon.
