FX.co ★ USD/CAD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for September 3, 2014

The bullish breakout off the depicted channel allowing bulls to retest the price zone between 1.0910-1.0850 (50-61.8% Fibonacci levels on the daily chart) where a prominent congestion zone was previously formed.

One month ago, the USD/CAD pair has failed to maintain daily closure above price level of 1.0950, then a double-top reversal pattern was expressed at retesting last week.

As we mentioned before, bearish rejection was anticipated after such a long bullish rally that originated off 1.0650 and 1.0710.

A valid SELL position was suggested at retesting which took place last week. The initial bearish target is located around 1.0825, then 1.0770 (considerable Intraday support) .

Price zone of 1.0880-1.0900 offers a valid low-risk SELL entry as long as the recent top at 1.0990 remains unbroken.

Daily closure below price zone of 1.0870-1.0850 confirms a long-term double-top pattern (on the daily chart) with its projection target located at 1.0770.

On the other hand, daily fixation above 1.0950 (50% Fibonacci level) enables the bulls to shoot towards 1.1020 and 1.1050 initially (very low probability in the meantime).
