EUR/CAD is a fascinating cross pair. It pits the euro (EUR) against the Canadian dollar (CAD). No USD influence means pure relational dynamics. Fundamentals from both sides drive moves. Commodity links and policy differences create volatility. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms reactions—high volume on swings shows conviction. Analysis of the EUR/CAD, the volume point of control and Wyckoff's three laws
Euro-Side Drivers (EUR)

Global Growth: China demand (trade...
