EUR/CAD is maintaining gains above 1.5750, with resistance potentially at 1.5845, a nine-week high. The Relative Strength Index passing the 50 level indicates an upward tendency, while immediate support is near the nine-day Exponential Moving Average of 1.5717.
The pair has risen for five consecutive days, currently trading around 1.5780 in Asian markets. The daily chart points towards an upward momentum within the ascending channel pattern, surpassing the 50-day Exponential Moving Average.
Short-term price gains are bolstered by the 14-day RSI staying above 50. The pair might aim for 1.5845, with a potential break above leading toward the channel top at 1.5920.
Support at 1.5717 could falter if prices drop, possibly leading to a test of 1.5650. Breaching the lower support might result in a move towards the 11-week low of 1.5483.

What we are seeing here is a firm grip by the euro over the Canadian dollar, particularly within the past week. The fact that the price is settling well above the 1.5750 handle – and more notably, stringing together five straight daily gains – points to steady momentum rather than just a reactionary surge. From a technical lens, the consistency above the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which isn’t a casual threshold, suggests that traders are leaning into a trend, not escaping volatility.
Now, when one sees the Relative Strength Index (RSI) climb past the midpoint of 50 and remain there, it signals a preference for buying pressure. It isn’t overstretched just yet though, and that matters. As long as this measure remains buoyant without diving into overbought extremes, there is room on the upside. The area near 1.5845 does provide the next potential obstacle. If price action clears that space, you’d be looking at 1.5920 as the top of the ascending channel. That spot becomes a reference point not for wishful thinking but measured planning.
Support levels shouldn’t be ignored amid all the optimism. The nearby 1.5717 mark, which aligns with the 9-day EMA, should not be treated as an afterthought. If price slips underneath—and we should be prepared for that possibility—it could invite selling down to the 1.5650 figure. Behaviour around that level will matter because any breach there might trigger a deeper move south, perhaps as far as 1.5483, which hasn’t been visited for over two months.
It’s not just about this one cross either. The euro is gaining traction more broadly. Against the Swiss franc, for instance, it’s strengthening, and when your base currency pushes upward relative to safe-haven counterparts, that’s often a reflection of either improving sentiment or shifting capital flows. Elsewhere, it’s only under slight pressure from the US dollar. That sort of cross-comparison helps map general appetite and directional conviction.
For those of us watching the broader market, percentage changes across various pairs—especially when measured directly on a matrix—highlight pockets of strength or weakness. It’s clear: not all moves are created equal. More random movement against the kiwi reflects speculative flows or perhaps limited conviction. Still, the data points are informative.
In the immediate term, we continue to monitor strength while keeping alert for any pullback through 1.5717. The divergence between short-term EMAs and longer-range averages hints that price is moving away from its baseline. But as always, we look for confirmation – not just impulsive motion.
