Comment:
The Canadian Dollar is heading towards its worst 2-week period against the US Dollar since the middle of February with USD/CAD up about 1.8 percent so far. Retail traders have been responding by increasing downside exposure, which can be seen by looking at IG Client Sentiment (IGCS). The latter often functions as a contrarian indicator. With that in mind, will USD/CAD continue higher from here?
