A bear theme in USDCAD remains intact and is trading just ahead of its recent lows. The pair has breached the base of a bull channel drawn from the Jul 23 low. The break highlights a stronger bear cycle and signals scope for an extension towards 1.3769 next, a Fibonacci retracement point. Initial firm resistance to watch is 1.3971, 20-day EMA. Short-term gains would be considered corrective.
