The US dollar index is at risk of further further losses if price breaches the 88.00 support level according to higher time frame analysis.<\/p><p>Should we see a breakout under the 88.00 handle commodity-related currencies such as the Canadian dollar are likely to experience further heavy selling. This is especially true if risk-on sentiment remains intact, and the greenback continues to decline.<\/p><p>Risk sentiment is important to the USDCAD pair, as the Canadian dollar is heavily influenced by the price of oil, and as such tends to react, and overeact at times, to large fluctuations in the price of oil.<\/p><p>Recent data shows that the Canadian economy expanded more than expected during in October, with 0.4 percent growth. This beat most economists forecasts, as the Canadian economy defied the rise in COVID-19 infections.<\/p><p>The main risk events for the Canadian dollar next week on the economic calendar is the ISM manufacturing report, non-farm payrolls job report, and Canadian job report. These are set to influence the direction of the pair in January.<\/p><p>From a technical standpoint, the USDCAD pair is trading close to a downside breakout, and is at risk of slipping into a much-lower price range, between the 1.2000 to 1.2500 levels. Lower and higher time frame analysis both show the possibility of a reversal, with the pair also being extremely oversold at the moment.<\/p><p><strong>USDCAD Short-Term Technical Analysis<\/strong><\/p><p>The four-hour time frame shows that a falling broadening wedge pattern has formed.
