The Canadian Dollar has been weakening against the Japanese Yen in a descending channel since mid-September. This pattern began when the rate bounced off a long-term ascending wedge valid since late December, 2017.
If looking in the short term, the rate has formed a junior channel. However, the Loonie has failed to reach its upper boundary for several sessions, thus demonstrating the strength of bears.
The pair is currently testing the combined resistance of the 100– and 55-hour SMAs at 88.40. In case this area is breached, the rate likewise faces the weekly and monthly PPs and the 200-hour SMA circa 89.00.
The overall market sentiment is bearish; thus, it is likely that the medium-term channel might not hold the rate any longer. A possible downside target for this week could be the monthly S3 and the weekly S2 at 86.00.
