USDCAD bearish trend conditions remain intact as Monday’s gains were erased into the Tuesday close. The move lower last week resulted in a print below 1.3322. A clear break of this level would strengthen bearish conditions and signal scope for weakness towards 1.3226, the Nov 13 low and the bear trigger. Moving average studies are in a bear mode position, highlighting a downtrend. On the upside, the pair needs to clear 1.3521, the Jan 19 high, to signal a reversal.
