USD/CAD trimming losses around 1.0500
FXstreet.com (Edinburgh) -The USD is reverting the positive start on Tuesday, dragging the USD/CAD from session highs in the proximities of 1.0540 to the current test of 1.0500 the figure.
USD/CAD weaker despite US data
Decent results from the US Consumer Confidence and the S&P/Case-Shiller index failed to sustain the previous USD upside, running out of steam around 1.0540. According to G.Moore and S.Osborne, FX Strategists at TD Securities, “We retain a generally bullish bias here overall but the market seems to have stalled… The alignment of positive (for the USD) trend momentum indicators across a range of timeframes still leaves us leaning clearly bullish on the technical outlook here. But we want to see some (sustained) movement higher in the next few days to keep the move up going. We spot major daily support now at 1.0440/45. Resistance is 1.0605/10”.
USD/CAD key levels
The pair is now advancing 0.02% at 1.0503 facing the next hurdle at 1.0569 (high Aug.23) followed by 1.0574 (high Jul.9) and then 1.0586 (high Jul.8). On the flip side, a breakdown of 1.0490 (low Aug.23) would aim for 1.0471 (low Aug.22) and finally 1.0423 (MA10d).
