USD/CAD’s breach of 1.3196 minor support dampened the bullish view. Rebound from 1.3068 might have completed already. Intraday bias is turned back to the downside for this support. Decisive break there will carry larger bearish implications. On the upside, break of 1.3340 will resume the rebound from 1.3068 towards 1.3664 high.
In the bigger picture, structure of the medium term rise from 1.2061 (2017 low) to 1.3664 is not clearly impulsive. Hence, we’d stay cautious on strong resistance from 61.8% retracement of 1.4689 (2016 high) to 1.2061 at 1.3685 and 1.3793 resistance to limit upside, and bring medium term topping. But in any case, medium term outlook will stay bullish as long as channel support (now at 1.3109) holds. Sustained break of 1.3793 will pave the way to retest 1.4689 (2015 high). Firm break of the channel support should confirm reversal target 1.2061 low again.
