The greenback will thus take centre stage, as market consensus is expecting a balanced tone from Yellen although recent unease overseas could weigh on the Fed’s decision to hike rates at its March meeting.

USD/CAD significant levels

As of writing the pair is up 0.02% at 1.3879 with the next support at 1.3635 (low Feb.4) ahead of 1.3581 (100-day sma) and finally 1.3170 (200-day sma). On the upside, a surpass of 1.4103 (high Feb.3) would expose 1.4129 (20-day sma) and then 1.4327 (high Jan.26).
