USDCAD continues to weaken, extending the reversal from Tuesday’s 1.2871 high. The Mar 11 low of 1.2694 has been breached and this clear break signals potential for a deeper retracement that opens 1.2587 next, the Mar 3 low and a key near-term support. From a trend perspective, moving average studies still highlight a bull cycle. Clearance of 1.2901, Mar 8 high, is required though to highlight a resumption of the uptrend.
