USD/CAD: The US dollar looks for support at 1.32765
What's going on with the USD/CAD?
USD/CAD: The US dollar has reached two important technical points which might change the direction of the trend. The pair is now holding on to its trading position above its 500 EMA in the 4 hrs chart at 1.32765 and also at the bottom of the price channel.
My thoughts on what may happen
USD/CAD: The US dollar needs to hold its position above its 500 EMA at 1.32765 on the four hours price chart to head back up. The pair could continue further down to 1.32375 and 1.32065 if it fails at 1.32765
Support: 1.32765, 1.32375, 1.32065, and 1.31632
Resistance: 1.33168, 1.33475, 1.34055, and 1.34615
