Thinking of trading GBP/CAD?
- 1. Due to the GBP being a reserve currency and a much bigger economy than the CAD, traders might find trading this pair somewhat advantageous. Because of the CAD being less widely traded, it might find itself less vulnerable to speculation and less likely to swing in political sentiment. 2. By simply following economic calendars you can find an important amount of information regarding events that will influence the price of the CAD. And for the fact that the two used to be correlated in the past due to the connection of the two countries, it would be quite a simple pair to trade. Moreover the pair is considered a heavy trade.

1. For the CAD, you should monitor the OPEC meetings decisions, US rigs weekly data and number of inventories. An increase in oil price helps the Canadian dollar to get strength. It is also worth mentioning that Canada has only one purchasing managers Index, the Ivey PMI, that is considered to be a direct reflection of the country's economic health. 2. Another factor traders need to be mindful of is the political turmoil in the UK which can influence heavily on the GBP price, pushing the pair either direction depending on market sentiment and political events. It is important for traders to not lose sight of any news regarding the Brexit.
