CAD · frequently asked questions
What does the Canadian Dollar (CAD) intrinsic score mean?
The Canadian Dollar intrinsic score is a single fundamental-strength reading for CAD, blending macro indicators with price momentum. A positive score points to inflationary or strengthening pressure, a negative score to deflationary or weakening pressure, and a near-zero score to a balanced stance.
Is CAD bullish or bearish right now?
Canadian Dollar (CAD) currently reads neutral: its fundamental strength and momentum are roughly balanced. Its latest reading is -0.90. This is market context (a weeks-to-months bias, not an entry signal), so wait for price action to confirm before acting.
What macro indicators feed the CAD score?
The CAD score draws on macro inputs including PMI, Services PMI, the Consumer Confidence Index, Retail Sales, Building Permits, and the employment report. These readings are synthesised into a directional consensus and combined with price momentum to produce the intrinsic score.
How is CAD COT positioning used?
Commitment of Traders (COT) data shows how non-commercial (speculative and institutional) traders are positioned in CAD. BearPaws uses it for trend confirmation or contrarian reads alongside the intrinsic and cross-pair scores, not as a standalone signal.
