"USD/CAD retains a soft bias but the lack of acceleration away from the 1.0050 area, so far at least, suggests little interest in leaning too hard on the downside just now." 
- TD Securities (based on The Wall Street Journal)


Pair's Outlook

USD/CAD finally reached the 200-day SMA at 1.0013 and already reversed from it. Today the price touched the SMA and bounced back to the weekly S1 at 1.0033. However, the current upside should not be sustainable, as the pair did not check the SMA properly, with some attempts to settle beneath it. Therefore, it is likely to see another dip soon with a spike below the line.
