USD/CAD managed to retain its upward momentum on Wednesday despite being hindered for several trading hours by the 200-hour SMA . After peaking at 1.3337, the Greenback entered a consolidation phase, returning near the 20-hour SMA at 1.3320. Better-than-expected Canadian data on Core Retail Sales mid-today resulted in a plunge, as the rate dashed through the 55-, 200- and 100-hour SMAs. In general, further depreciation is unlikely to be sustainable; thus, the base scenario favours the rate edging higher. The upper limit for the following session may be the 200-hour SMA at 1.3342 apparent on the daily chart. On Friday, Canada is to publish month-on-month CPI at 1230 GMT.
