USD/CAD Technical Analysis: USD/CAD back to 1.3155 support level after bull attempt at 1.3200 figure

  • USD/CAD is back to the 1.3155 support after bulls tried to break above the 1.3200 figure. 
  • USD/CAD bullish momentum is slowing down as the price is now below its 50, 100 and 200-period simple moving averages which are all trading flat. 
  • It appears unlikely that USD/CAD is ripe for a bull breakout in this context as the market might try to reintegrate the 1.3120-1.3155 range once more time. A bear breakout below 1.3155 might lead to a retest of the 1.3120 demand level.
