– Activity at the end of the week was dominated by CAD, which posted a top-ten volume day for the past year.

– Major USD pairs such as EUR//USD, GBP/USD and USD/JPY saw activity dip on Friday despite further USD gains. Additional activity like this would signal investor fatigue with the USD bull-run.
– Low levels of activity in NOK point to likely range trading.
