"The salient feature of the daily chart remains last Thursday's big, bullish key reversal day, [by the U.S. dollar]. […] On the day, weakness below C$1.0100/10 may see C$1.0055 retested--a good opportunity for USD buyers." 
- TD Securities (based on the Wall Street Journal)


Pair's Outlook

The U.S. Dollar loses its value today relative to its Canadian counterpart, as the price slides from a 1.0132 level, where the 100-day SMA intersects with the 20-day SMA. The pair is in a vague situation, as the price is below the major moving averages and in the lower part of Bollinger bands, but still attempts to strengthen and to start a bullish trend. In case it breaches a 1.0132 level, the pair should step over 1.0174, where the 55-day SMA is currently positioned.
