USDCAD cancels bullish signal

In our last USDCAD analysis we noted that price was breaking out of the downward sloping wedge pattern and was providing a bullish signal. This signal would be valid as long as price stayed above 1.25. Bulls could not hold price above 1.25.

Red line - upper wedge boundary

Blue line - lower wedge boundary

USDCAD is moving sharply lower towards 1.23. In previous posts we warned that if price were to turn below 1.25, then we should expect it to move towards the lower wedge boundary and the 1.23 level. Price is back inside the downward sloping wedge pattern. Resistance remains key at 1.26-1.2620 area and as long as we trade below this level, bears remain in control of the trend.
