The doubt about the interest rate choice declaration by the Feds, during the coming week, will keep hanging over the Forex Market. Concerning the market agreement, an interest rate increase by 50bps looks very positive but market players will have to pay attention to the order for a decrease of the balance sheet and a plan of restoring the interest rate to an unbiased position.

Presently, we can observe that the rising oil prices have supported the Canadian dollar against the US dollar.
