The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.
USD/CAD Analysis
Last Thursday I took a bearish bias, which worked out for a while, but the chart now shows some convincing at 1.2450 and again at a step up around 1.2530. The price does not look very firm now though. However, due to the holiday in the U.S. A. today, trading is likely to be very light in this pair.
There is nothing due today concerning either the CAD or the USD. It is a public holiday in the U.S.A.
