A bull cycle in USDCAD remains in play and the latest pullback is considered corrective - for now. However, support around the 20-day EMA, at 1.4168, has been breached. This signals scope for a deeper retracement near-term towards 1.4073, the 50-day EMA. Key short-term resistance has been defined at 1.4300, the Oct 14 high. Clearance of this level would confirm a resumption of the uptrend and open 1.4328 next, a Fibonacci projection.

A downtrend in AUDUSD remains intact and Thursday’s bear leg reinforces the bearish theme. The sell-off resulted in a move through support at 0.6904, the Oct 1 low. This highlights a resumption of the bear leg that started on Sep 9 and paves the way for an extension towards 0.6865, the Jun 30 low and an important medium-term support. Key short-term resistance is at 0.7041, the 50-day EMA.
