Technical indicators, such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), substantiate the bearish momentum in EUR/CAD's recent price action. The RSI, currently in negative territory, shows increasing selling pressure with a declining slope, suggesting a rise in bearish sentiment. Meanwhile, the MACD, though flat, remains in red, indicating sustained selling pressure.
The EUR/CAD pair has been facing strong resistance at the confluence of its 20-day and 200-day SMAs, leading to a bearish crossover. This signals potential weakness in the pair in the coming sessions as it may invalidate it latest strides to recover.
