USD/CAD Price Forecast: Rises toward 1.4050 due to potential for bullish reversal

  • USD/CAD is trying to rebound within its ascending channel around 1.4030.
  • The 14-day Relative Strength Index stays above the 60 mark, reinforcing the bullish outlook.
  • The primary support lies at the nine-day EMA of 1.4016.

USD/CAD inches higher after registering losses in the previous session, trading around 1.4030 during the European hours on Monday. The technical analysis of the daily chart suggests a bullish reversal as the pair is attempting a rebound within the ascending channel pattern.

The short-term price momentum is stronger as the USD/CAD pair is positioned above the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA). Additionally, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains above the 60 level, supporting the bullish bias to revive.

On the upside, the successful return to the ascending channel would revive the bullish bias and support the USD/CAD pair to test the six-month high of 1.4079, reached on October 14. A break above this level would support the pair to explore the region around the ascending channel’s upper boundary at 1.4170.

The USD/CAD pair may find its immediate support at the nine-day EMA of 1.4016. A break below this level would weaken the short-term price momentum and put downward pressure on the pair to test the 50-day EMA at 1.3894. Further declines would prompt the pair to navigate the region around the three-month low of 1.3721.
