AUDUSD midweek: Aussie reclaims 0.6987 after Monday dip, 2026-07-13
AUDUSD trades at 0.69875 midweek, up roughly 46 pips from Monday's open, with a thin back-half calendar and the daily PBOC fix in focus.
2 min readUSDCAD opened at 1.38023 on Monday and closed Friday at 1.37955, dropping 68 pips or 0.49% over the five sessions. The pair peaked at 1.38694 on Thursday before sellers pushed it back below 1.38000 to end the week.
The calendar shows no high-impact events for USDCAD in the coming five sessions. Without central bank decisions or tier-one data releases to drive volatility, you can expect technical levels and broader dollar flows to dictate price action.
The absence of scheduled catalysts often leads to range-bound conditions. Watch how the pair behaves around the 1.38000 psychological level that capped Friday's close and whether last week's 1.38694 high attracts buyers on any approach.
If USDCAD holds above 1.38000 early in the week, the Thursday high at 1.38694 becomes the obvious target. A break above that level puts 1.39000 on the radar. If the pair fails to reclaim 1.38000 convincingly, last week's low at 1.37699 offers the next support test.
Current positioning shows 51% of traders long and 49% short as of Sunday morning. This near-balanced split reflects the market's uncertainty heading into a data-light week. Neither bulls nor bears hold a decisive edge, which typically results in choppy, two-way price action.
Three levels stand out as the week begins. The 1.38000 round number sits right at Friday's close and will likely act as the week's pivot. Above, 1.38694 marks last week's high and the key resistance. Below, 1.37699 represents last week's low and the first meaningful support. These are reference levels for context, not entry signals.
