Technical View:
USD/CAD: The Canadian dollar erases previous loss against U.S. dollar and currently stabilizes around 1.2650 mark. The pair made intraday high at 1.2698 and low at 1.2637 mark. A day chart with triple EMA still suggests the bearish trend while H1 chart for the short run confirms the uptrend. A sustained close below 1.2610 will test key supports. Alternatively, reversal from here will take the parity back above 1.2700 marks.
Key Resistances: 1.2692, 1.2740, 1.2768, 1.2800, 1.2845
Key Supports: 1.2610, 1.2584, 1.2555, 1.2520, 1.2490
