Intraday bias in USD/CAD remains on the upside as rise from 1.2968 is still in progress. The pair should target 1.3598 high next. Decisive break there will resume the medium term rally from 1.2460 and target next fibonacci level at 1.3838. On the downside, break of 1.3371 minor support is needed to indicate short term topping. Otherwise, outlook will remain bullish in case of retreat.
In the bigger picture, price actions from 1.4689 medium term top are seen as a correction pattern. The first leg has completed at 1.2460. The second leg is likely still in progress and could target 61.8% retracement of 1.4689 to 1.2460 at 1.3838. We’d look for reversal signal there to start the third leg. Break of 1.2968 wold at least bring at retest of 1.2460 low. However, sustained trading above 1.3838 would pave the way to retest 1.4689 high.
