USD/CAD technical analysis: Clings to 14-month old support-line amid oversold RSI

  • Oversold RSI limits USD/CAD’s further declines around medium-term trend-line support.
  • Sellers cheered the break of 200-day SMA.

Having failed to slip beneath an upward sloping trend-line since April 2018, the USD/CAD pair rests on the medium-term important support-line as it takes the rounds to 1.3190 during early Friday.

While oversold levels of the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) signal brighter chances of the pair’s pullback, sellers continue to dominate unless the quote clears 200-day simple moving average (SMA) level of 1.3280.

Should prices rally past-1.3280, 1.3300 round-figure and May month low near 1.3358 could please the buyers.

On the contrary, a downside break of 1.3177 support-line can fetch the pair to 50% Fibonacci retracement of April – December 2018 period, near 1.3100.

During the pair’s additional declines below 1.3100, the current year’s low around 1.3069 and the 1.3000 psychological magnet might lure the bears.
