It seems like the week is closing on a slight risk-on undertone, with US equities modestly higher and safe-haven currencies under performing against other major currencies.<\/p>\n<p>White House economic advisor Kudlow gave the risk sentiment a positive push after he said that trade negotiations were down to the \u201cshort strokes\u201d, signaling \u2014 once again &#8211; a potential deal in sight.<\/p>\n<p>The US dollar was slightly lower on mixed market reports. Core retail sales came in at 0.2% for October, while market forecasts were for a 0.3% rise. Nevertheless, retail sales (including automobiles) grew 0.3% in October, beating expectations of a 0.1% rise.<\/p>\n<p>The Bank of Canada Governor Poloz gave some positive remarks at a Fed event yesterday, suggesting that current data shows a healthy labour market and wage growth above 4%.<\/p>\n<p>These comments supported the Canadian dollar overnight, which reached an intraday high of 1.3220 against the US dollar during the Asian session. Market expectations of a rate cut in December were little changed at around 20%.<\/p>\n<p>The pair\u2019s technical picture is slightly bearish at the moment. The daily chart shows a bearish reversal pattern that could send the price further down, with the November 1 high of 1.3200 acting as a short-term support level.<\/p>\n<p>To the upside, yesterday\u2019s high of 1.3270 will likely provide some selling pressure and act as a resistance level if retested, followed by the October highs of 1.3345. As of 2:50 p.m. London time, the US dollar traded at 1.3230 against the Canadian dollar.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/wise.com\/?utm_source=currencylive-com&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_content=news%2Fwp_json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F82179&utm_campaign=news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-65277\" style=\"padding-top: 5px;\" src=\"https:\/\/currencylive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/transferwise-inline-banner-money-transfer.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"125\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<hr \/>\n<h6><em>Currencylive.com is a news site only and not a currency trading platform.<\/em><\/h6>\n<h6><em>Currencylive.com is a site operated by TransferWise Inc.
