USDCAD pierced the 20-day EMA support Tuesday, reversing the entirety of the week’s early bounce. A close below here would be a bearish development and work against the broader uptrend. For now, th recovery from 1.3503, Oct 10 high, is reinforcing bullish conditions. Moving average studies also highlight an uptrend and 1.3838, Sep 30 high has been cleared. A clear break and close below the 20-day EMA would suggest scope for a pullback towards 1.3503, Oct 4 low.
