Yesterday’s signals were not technically triggered as the bullish price action occurred between the key levels, however, any long trade taken from the bounce there would be doing well. It could be worth taking more partial profit at about 1.2600.

  • The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.

    USD/CAD Analysis

    The price continued downwards yesterday following its recent strong bearish pushes, helped by better than expected Canadian Core Retail Sales data. This movement was in line with the long-term bearish trend. However, when the price reached a key supportive zone centered around 1.2525, there was strong buying which has now pushed the price up to the 1.2600 area, which has acted as minor resistance. If the round number is broken, the price may continue to rise, but watch out for possible topping at 1.2620 or 1.2640.
