Irans ambassador to the United Nations: Our government "has received some signals" that the United States is prepared to end the blockade.April 22 – Iraq, which maintains close relations with both Iran and the United States, often finds itself caught between the two. Now, with its two partners embroiled in war, the Baghdad government is facing increasing pressure from the United States. Washington is demanding that Iraq distance itself from Iran and restrain Iraqi militias with Iranian ties, which have been behind recent attacks against U.S. interests in Iraq. Two Iraqi officials revealed on Monday that, in order to force Iraq to choose, the United States has suspended cooperation with and funding to Iraqi security forces. The U.S. State Department declined to comment specifically on the move but said Washington has asked the Iraqi government to crack down on Iranian-backed militias, including some linked to Baghdad government officials. State Department Deputy Spokesperson Pigott said in a statement: "The United States will not tolerate attacks on U.S. interests and expects the Iraqi government to take immediate and all necessary measures to disband the Iranian-backed militias within Iraq."Federal Reserve Governor Waller: Greater flexibility is needed to capture efficiencies and manage risks, such as cybersecurity, and to integrate artificial intelligence into our system processes.Federal Reserve Governor Waller: There is no reason to reduce the number of Reserve Banks or change their geographical distribution.Federal Reserve Governor Waller: The Fed’s decentralized structure is a key factor in fulfilling many important responsibilities.

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.
