USD/CAD Technical Analysis: Approaches a confluence support ahead of US/Canadian PMI

   “¢   The pair extended last week’s sharp retracement slide from the 1.3660-65 supply zone, or 19-month tops, and remained under some selling pressure for the fourth consecutive session.

   “¢   The bearish slide has now dragged the pair to a confluence support – comprising of near 3-month old ascending trend-line, 38.2% Fibo. level of the early-Oct. to late-Dec. upsurge and 10-day SMA.

   “¢   Technical indicators on hourly charts are already pointing to slightly oversold conditions and support prospects for a technical bounce from the mentioned support, near the 1.3320-15 region.  

   “¢   However, oscillators on the daily chart have just started gaining negative momentum and hence, any attempted rebound is likely to meet with some fresh supply/remain capped at the 1.3400 handle.
