The recent USDCAD recovery remains intact and the pair edged higher Tuesday. Although the move higher is considered corrective, the current bullish tone signals scope for an extension of the upleg. The pair has cleared the 20-day EMA and the focus is on the 50-day EMA at 1.2640 which was probed earlier this week before prices faded Wednesday. On the downside, initial firm support is seen at 1.2516, Mar 23 low. A break would refocus attention on major support at 1.2365.
