- RES 3: 1.0803 High Feb 14 and key resistance
- RES 2: 1.0775 50.0% retracement of the Feb 2 - Mar 15 bear leg
- RES 1: 1.0760 High Mar 15 and the bull trigger

- SUP 2: 1.0484 Low Jan 6 and a key support
- SUP 3: 1.0454 Trendline support drawn from the Sep 28 2022 low
- SUP 4: 1.0394 Low Dec 1
EURUSD remains below resistance at 1.0760, the Mar 15 high. Last week's price action resulted in a brief test below key short-term support at 1.0525, the Mar 8 low. A clear break of this level is required to reinstate a bearish theme that would open 1.0484, the Jan 6 low and 1.0454, a trendline support drawn from the Sep 28 2022 low. 1.0760 marks the current key short-term resistance - clearance of this level would reinstate a bullish theme.

USDCAD traded higher again Friday, hitting the week’s best levels at 1.3537. This defies the view that the recent bounce was corrective, as the pair builds a base for further gains. The bull trigger is still someway off at 1.3705, but a weekly close above the 1.3500 would prove constructive. A break of 1.3262, Feb 2 low, would strengthen bearish conditions and open 1.3226, the Nov 15 low and the bear trigger.

AUDUSD printed a lower low early Friday, putting prices through first support at 0.6856 to expose 0.6781. The broader uptrend remains intact for now, and the recent move lower highlights a correction that is allowing a recent overbought trend condition to unwind. Key resistance and the bull trigger have been defined at 0.7158, the Feb 2 high. A break would resume the uptrend.
