There is a variety of trends on the USD/CAD currency pair. At the moment, quotes have been declining. We expect statistics on Canada GDP. The round level of 1.30000 is the key support. The 1.31300 mark is already a “mirror” resistance. We recommend looking for entry points to the market from these levels.

Alternative option. If the price fixes below 1.30000, we recommend looking for entry points to the market to open short positions. The target level for profit-taking is 1.29700-1.29300.
