USDCAD maintains its recent consolidative tone. The focus is still on the upper

end of the recent range with the key resistance at 1.3346, the Aug 20 high. Just

above this level is the 61.8% retracement of the May 31 - July 19 decline at

1.3355. A move above 1.3346/55 would reinforce a bullish theme and open 1.3432,

allowing for an extension of the uptrend that has been in place since Jul 19.

Support lies at 1.3251, the Aug 19 low and an important S/T level.
