Trading elections is often fraught, so if you are doing so please take care.

Results from Canada should trickle in from pretty soon. Polls do not close until a few hours time on Canada's west coast though.

I've heard a few views on the CAD. One is the expectation than Trudeau is expected to win but only in a minority government in coalition with parties further to the left, which may well weigh on CAD. Another is also bearish CAD.

Given the down move for USD/CAD (ie a strengthening CAD) overnight this might present some opportunities for those sharing a bearish CAD view?

Picking a bottom in a down trend (hourly chart shown, your results may vary) can be a tricky affair.
