Remember that directional biases and volatility conditions in market price are typically driven by fundamentals. If you haven’t yet done your fundie homework on the Canadian dollar and Japanese yen, then it’s time to check out the economic calendar and stay updated on daily fundamental news!
If that’s the case, stay on the lookout for a sustained move to the range resistance or at least until R1 (111.88) near the 112.00 major psychological mark. Stronger bullish momentum might even take the pair for an upside break to R2 (112.55) then R3 (113.07).
After a sharp drop, the pair still managed to keep its head above the range bottom and might now be setting its sights back on the top again.

Consolidation is still the name of the game for this forex pair as it bounced off its range support again.

In the past weeks, the oil-related Loonie was able to draw some strength from the commodity, even though the BOC recently shifted to a less hawkish stance. A fresh round of geopolitical conflict over the weekend might spur further supply concerns for crude oil and therefore keep prices elevated.
CAD/JPY has been pacing back and forth between support at the 111.15 mark and resistance around 112.25.
