USDCAD TRADING PLAN
The pair is trading within an indecision zone between 1,30 and 1,263, with an inside support/resistance level at 1,28. The weekly chart suggests CAD should rather go up, although it is consolidating within a bullish triangle on the daily chart. Watch price action at 1,315, 1,30 and 1,28. Buy between 1,30 and 1,28, consider selling a strong reversal at 1,315, buy a confirmed break up.
On the monthly chart, all SMAs are pointing up and are parallel, except the 200 SMA: we are within a strong bullish consolidation. The pair rejected a 786 Fibonacci level resistance near 1,46 in January, and then went back to retest a wide support zone located between 1,30 and 1,26. There was a bullish engulfing candle in May, but no follow through. The stochastic oscillator gave a buy signal by the end of June.
USDCAD MONTHLY CHART.
The weekly chart shows a clear uptrend situation, and it is the main reason why I want to buy this pair. The loonie has been going up for more than three years now, driven by a drop in oil prices. The bearish consolidation that took place since January 2016 seems to have ended when the pair met a support at the 100 SMA by the beginning of May, which it rejected with a bullish engulfing candle. Since then, and although it has not shown any particular bullish strength, it managed to break up a resistance at 1,28, where a 38,2 weekly Fibonaci level is located. After that it has ranged between that level and 1,30, but as long as it stays above 1,28 and/or above the 100 SMA, I would rather look for buying signals.
