USD/CAD Technical Analysis: Greenback bulls need a break above 1.3000 figure

  • USD/CAD is trading sideways as it is between the 50 and 100-period simple moving averages.  
  • The 1.3000 level and the 200 SMA are acting as strong resistance as the market seems contained below it for the time being.
  • Bulls are slowly coming back but they will need a convincing break above 1.3000 level in order to reach 1.3048 (August 14 low).
