USDCAD needle still points south. Last week's key technical development was the test of the major support at 1.2062, Sep 2017 low. This represents an important pivot chart point that either represents the base of a broad range or the midpoint of a double top reversal pattern. A clear break lower would reinforce the current downtrend and open 1.2000 and below. Initial firm resistance is at 1.2203, May 13 high.
