A year of buying CADCHF
Over the last 44 days CADCHF closed between $0.5778 (August 19, 2026) and $0.5900 (September 16, 2026). One hundred dollars put in at the low would be worth $101 today; at the high, $99. The current price $0.5819 is above 9 of those 44 daily closes, so a purchase on a random day of that stretch would be in profit 20% of the time — fees aside.
A typical day moves CADCHF by 0.6%: a $1,000 position swings about $6 a day.
