USD/CAD Weekly Outlook

USD/CAD’s rebound from 1.2246 extended higher last week and reached 1.2915. Considering loss of upside momentum in 4 hour MACD and proximity to 1.2919 key resistance, initial bias is neutral this week first. On the downside, below 1.2757 resistance turned support will indicate rejection from 1.2919 resistance. Intraday bias will be turned back to the downside for 1.2614 support first. Nonetheless, firm break of 1.2919 will resume the rise from 1.2061 low and target 1.3065 fibonacci level.

In the bigger picture, current development is reviving the case of medium term reversal after drawing support from 50% retracement of 0.9406 (2011 low) to 1.4689 (2015 high) at 1.2048. Break of 1.2919 will add more credence to this bullish case and target 38.2% retracement of 1.4689 to 1.2061 at 1.3065 first. Break will target 61.8% retracement at 1.3685. However, break of 1.2450 near term support will turn focus back to 1.2061 low instead.

In the longer term picture, 50% retracement of 0.9406 (2011 low) to 1.4689 (2015 high) at 1.2048 remains a key support level to watch. As long as this level holds, we’ll treat fall from 1.4689 as a correction and expect another rally through this level. However, sustained break of 1.2048 will turn favors to the case that rise from 0.9056 (2007 low) is a three wave corrective move that’s completed at 1.4689. And retest of 0.9056/9406 support zone could be seen in medium to long term.
