The forecast for the USD/CAD remains bearish after this currency pair moved below its flatlining Tenkan-sen, located below its Kijun-sen. With US economic reports suggesting a slowing recovery, and several states implementing emergency hospital protocols, the outlook continues to weaken for the US Dollar. The Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud sloped downwards and narrowed its band, and the CCI is in extreme oversold territory with more downside potential. Will bears force more downside in the USD/CAD?
