USDCAD remained soft and traded sharply lower Tuesday, before finding some support. This week’s move down has resulted in a break of 1.3490, the Sep 1 low and this has been followed by a clear breach of the 50-day EMA, at 1.3475. The move lower reinforces a bearish theme and signals scope for a deeper retracement. The focus is on 1.3323 next, a Fibonacci retracement. Initial firm resistance has been defined at 1.3534, the 20-day EMA.
