USDCAD remains below last week's high of 1.2676 (Apr 13). The recent move lower does threaten a bullish theme and highlights the fact that price has so far failed to remain above the 50-day EMA, which intersects at 1.2624 today. Note that the Apr 13 session appears to be a bearish engulfing candle. If correct, it highlights a reversal. The focus is on 1.2479, Apr 6 low. On the upside, clearance of 1.2676 would be bullish.
