USD/CAD Technical Analysis: Rising channel hits 1.3100 – Next target is 1.3155 level

  • USD/CAD is trying to revive the main bull trend as this Thursday is set to be the best daily advance since August 10.  
  • USD/CAD is trading in a bull channel with rising and widening simple moving averages. Suggesting bullish momentum. USD/CAD reached the first target at 1.3100, the next target is in the 1.3120-1.3155 zone which acted as a strong resistance level in the past weeks. Since USD/CAD just hit 1.3100 figure and it has exceeded its average daily range, it is reasonable to expect some consolidation before the next leg up.
  • A bear breakout below 1.3022 would invalidate the bullish bias.
