USD/CAD’s rise from 1.2448 resumed after brief retreat and intraday bias back on the upside for 1.2812 resistance first. Break there will target 1.2963 high next. On the downside, below 1.2558 minor support will turn bias back to the downside for 1.2448 instead.
In the bigger picture, focus stays on 38.2% retracement of 1.4667 (2020 high) to 1.2005 (2021 low) at 1.3022. Sustained break there should confirm that the down trend from 1.4667 has completed after defending 1.2061 long term cluster support. Further rise would then be seen towards 61.8% retracement at 1.3650. However, rejection by 1.3022 will maintain medium term bearishness. Break of 1.2005 will resume the down trend form 1.4667 and that carries larger bearish implications too.
