USD/CAD Analysis

There has actually been no major change here: both the levels of support and resistance which have been reached have held and produced reversals.

This pair is beginning to look exciting for USD bulls as it is beginning to threaten to break bullishly out of its long-term range. The resistance level at 1.3241 is very key. A break above there would be a very bullish sign and could see the price reach 1.3400 quite quickly as there are no more key resistance levels until that number.USDCAD

There is nothing due today concerning either the CAD or the USD.
