  • SUP 4: 1.3205 61.8% retracement of the Aug 11 - Oct 13 rally

USDCAD traded flat into the Monday close, with price action doing little to row back against the bearish threat evident in the pullback from 1.3521 last week, the Jan 19 high. A continuation lower would expose support at 1.3322, the Jan 13 low, where a break would signal scope for an extension towards 1.3226, the Nov 13 low and a bear trigger. On the upside, price needs to break above 1.3521 to highlight scope for a stronger bounce.
