USD/CAD Set To Extend Declines With Bullish Signals Absent




Talking Points



  • USD/CAD Technical Strategy: Shorts Preferred


  • Harami fails to find confirmation


  • Absence of reversal signals casts doubt on bounce


USD/CAD has broken below the critical 1.0700 handle after a Harami pattern on the daily failed to find confirmation. With bullish signals now absent, doubt is cast on a possible recovery for the pair. The daily close below 1.0700 paves the way for a decline to the 1.0560 mark.

An examination of the four hour chart reveals the emergence of a Bullish Engulfing pattern, which suggests the bears have loosened their grip on USD/CAD in intraday trade. However, with support-turned-resistance looming overhead at 1.0700, further gains may be limited.
