USD/CAD Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.2667; (P) 1.2709; (R1) 1.2748; More….

Breaching 1.2624 minor support suggests temporary topping at 1.2757. Intraday bias in USD/CAD is turned neutral first. Further rise will remain in favor as long as 1.2450 support holds. Above 1.2757 will target 1.2919 key near term resistance. We’d be cautious on strong resistance from there to limit upside. However, break of 1.2450 will argue that rebound from 1.2246 is completed and turn bias to the downside for this support.

In the bigger picture, the rebound from 1.2246 is mixing up the medium term outlook. Nonetheless, USD/CAD is staying below falling 55 week EMA (now at 1.2776), hence, the bearish case is in favor. That is, fall from 1.4689 is not completed yet. Sustained break of 1.2061 key support will carry larger bearish implication and target 61.8% retracement of 0.9406 to 1.4689 at 1.1424. However, firm break of 1.2919 will revive the case of medium term reversal and turn outlook bullish.
