USD/CAD manages to establish temporary bottom around support 1.0275 for August 2, 2013
August 2, 2013 4:15 pm
The USD/CAD pair rose steeply approaching the key resistance level of the ascending channel around 1.0530 as depicted on the chart. Since then, the pair has established a consolidation range between 1.0450-1.0560 that expressed a false bullish breakout above 1.0555 which was followed by intensive bearish pressure that led to breakdown of 1.0450 and 1.0380 with a recorded low 1.0254.
As depicted on the chart, price zone 1.0325-1.0360 constituted a strong support area. However, strong bearish pressure off 1.0440 was applied on the pair to breakdown previous daily low at 1.0325. Today we should watch carefully as these price zone is being retested as resistance.
The next most significant support level is located around 1.0160 (near the low of June). However, we suggested a BUY entry around 1.0250 with SL located should below 1.0215 which is running in profits now.
For those who took the trade, the bulls need to have 4H closure above 1.0340 to collect enough momentum to push higher. Otherwise, further testing of 1.0250 is not excluded.
