The previously bullish tone in USDCAD faded Wednesday, with prices returning lower. The climb earlier in the week threatened the recent bearish theme, but prices faded ahead of key near-term resistance at 1.2878, the Feb 24 high that has been probed. Clearance of this level would be seen as a bullish short-term development and open 1.2964, the Dec 20 high and a key resistance. Weakness below 1.2587 is required to reinstate a bearish threat.
