USDCAD traded lower last week and short-term conditions remain bearish - for now. Key support lies at 1.3359, the Jan 31 low and a break of this level would be seen as a bearish development. Initial firm support to watch lies at 1.3441, the Feb 22 low. It has been pierced and a clear break would expose 1.3359. On the upside, the bull trigger is at 1.3606, the Feb 28 high, where a breach is required to reinstate a bullish theme.
