🔔 Today, May 13 at 12:30 pm UTC, the US Core CPI will be released. Core CPI measures changes in the price of goods and services, excluding food and energy. It’s a key indicator of inflation in the US that can directly impact the US dollar.

Core CPI data:
Previous: 2.4%
Forecasted: 2.5%

How the market could react:
🔼 CPI below expectations — EUR/USD rises.
🔽 CPI above expectations — EUR/USD falls.

📆 Last month, the core CPI was lower than expected, and EUR/USD rose in the first 5 minutes.

💡 Why this reaction?
Traders saw the lower US core CPI as a sign of slowing inflation, which reduces the likelihood of an interest rate hike, weakening the dollar.

2. Select EUR/USD.
3. Set the trade amount and time (3 to 5 minutes).

🔔 On May 20 at 12:30 pm UTC, Canada will release its Consumer Price Index (CPI), a key inflation indicator.

CPI measures changes in prices of goods and services for consumers. If the CPI is higher than expected, the Canadian dollar may strengthen, and vice versa.

Canada’s CPI:
Previous: 2.2%
Forecasted: 2.1%

Here’s how the market could react:
🔼 CPI below 2.2% — USD/CAD rises
🔽 CPI above 2.2% — USD/CAD falls

📆 Last time, the currency pair rose for 5 minutes after CPI data showed lower-than-expected inflation, weakening the CAD.

💡 Why?
Lower inflation signals less chance of interest rate hikes, making CAD less attractive to investors.

⚡ How to trade on USD/CAD on Olymptrade:
1. Open FTT or Flex mode on the day of the report.
2. Select USD/CAD.
3. Set trade amount and duration (3–5 mins).
