The current bear cycle in USDCAD remains in play and the pair traded lower again Wednesday. Price has shown below support at the 50-day EMA as well as 1.3560, the 50% retracement for the Feb 2 - Mar 10 rally. A clear break here required to signal scope for a deeper retracement - this would open 1.3515, the Feb 22 low. On the upside, a reversal higher would refocus attention on resistance at 1.3805, the Mar 24 high. The bull trigger is at 1.3862, the Mar 10 high.
