If I had to hold two trades for the week

Basecase scenario. We get a debt ceiling solution for more than 6 weeks and the government reopens.

  1. USD/CAD longs – The nice little pullback this afternoon is a solid entry. This Canadian dollar hasn’t shown any kind of a pulse this week.
  2. GBP/USD shorts – The retracement in the pound isn’t over.

Outside of FX, I got short oil, gold and stocks yesterday. I’m looking to get out of the stock trade but I like the oil and gold plays at least through Monday.

Best in 2026
