- RES 4: 1.4111 High Apr 10
- RES 3: 1.4019 38.2% retracement of the Feb 3 - Jun 16 bear leg
- RES 2: 1.3925 High Aug 22 and the bull trigger
- RES 1: 1.3890 High Sep 11
- PRICE: 1.3833 @ 08:02 BST Sep 12
- SUP 1: 1.3788/27 50-day EMA / Low Aug 27 and a bear trigger
- SUP 2: 1.3709 61.8% retracement of the Jul 23 - Aug 22 bull cycle
- SUP 3: 1.3658 76.4% retracement of the Jul 23 - Aug 22 bull cycle
- SUP 4: 1.3637 Low Jul 25
Despite yesterday’s pullback, a bull cycle in USDCAD remains intact. The recovery from the Aug 29 low highlights a reversal signal and if correct, marks the end of the corrective pullback between Aug 22 - 29. A continuation higher would open the bull trigger at 1.3925, the Aug 22 high. Support lies at 1.3727, the Aug 29 low. Clearance of this level would instead reinstate a short-term bear theme and expose 1.3709 initially, a Fibonacci retracement.

- RES 3: 1.3620 High Jul 10
- RES 2: 1.3589 High Jul 24
- RES 1: 1.3524 High Aug 12

Prices traded higher again Tuesday, further building on the gains posted after the break of the 50-day EMA on the August BoE rate decision. This firms the speed of the recovery off the 1.3142 pullback low and signals a greater probability of a bullish reversal. For now, S/T momentum is still pointed higher, with the Jul 24 high of 1.3589 the next notable upside level. While the bounce off the pullback low persists, the more medium-term trend remains bearish - but the risk of a return to recent lows has fallen.

EUR/USD edged higher Tuesday and is firm again to start the Wednesday session. Prices are extending gains on the clearance of the post-NFP high - keeping the recovery off the late July pullback low intact. This works against the bearish backdrop that had dominated the pullback from 1.1829. The break of firm resistance into 20-day EMA, now at 1.1624, is signaling greater odds of a further reversal higher. Major support below rests at 1.1373 next, the Jun 10 low.
