The USD/CAD pair may test the lower boundary of the rising channel around the level of 1.3760, followed by the key barrier at the psychological level of 1.3800. A return to the rising channel could reinforce the bullish bias and support the pair to explore the region April’s high of 1.3846.
A break above the latter could lead the USD/CAD pair to approach the upper threshold of the rising channel around the level of 1.3870.
