USD/CAD bias closed neutral on September 13, 2026
The USDCAD pair is currently influenced by a broader currency positioning reset highlighted in the CFTC report, and by market focus on the Federal Reserve and upcoming economic data following firmer August inflation. A global diesel shortage, as mentioned by Trump, is also a factor for energy markets, which can affect the Canadian dollar.
