USD/CAD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3380; (P) 1.3401; (R1) 1.3430; More

USD/CAD recovers further today but it’s, after all, still bounded in range below 1.3444. Consolidation might extend and intraday bias remains neutral. Near term outlook remains bullish as long as 1.3160 support holds, and further rally is expected. On the upside, break of 1.3444 will extend the larger up trend from 1.2061 for 1.3685 fibonacci level next. However, break of 1.3160 will indicate near term reversal and bring deeper decline.

In the bigger picture, up trend from 1.2061 (2017 low) is still in progress and should target to 61.8% retracement of 1.4689 (2016 high) to 1.2061 at 1.3685. However, such rise is not clearly impulsive yet. And it could be the second leg of the long term corrective pattern that started at 1.4689. Hence, even in case of further rally, we’d be cautious on loss of momentum and topping above 1.3685. Nevertheless, in any case, outlook will stay bullish as long as channel support (now at 1.2969) holds.
