USD/CAD daily charts, prior analysis
The market is bearish and is headed towards a price imbalance between the current lows and near 1.3050 on the downside. However, it was stated that a correction could be on the cards in the meanwhile, albeit remaining bearish while on the front side of the bearish trendline:
Zooming in, we could see a void of prices on the way to the trendline resistance and an imbalance of buys between the 1.3180 and 1.3205. A move higher to mitigate the price imbalance would have aligned with the 50% mean reversion of the daily bearish impulse.
USD/CAD updates
As shown, the price rallied into the imbalance and shot to test the 1.3220s. From here, a bearish continuation could be on the cards but the bulls remaining charge at this juncture and much will depend on next week's opening balance. The upside remains vulnerable towards the trendline resistance.
