USD/CAD prior analysis

It was stated that the M-formation was a reversion pattern that could draw the price into the neckline. It was suggested that if this were to act as a resistance, the micro trendline would come under pressure and open the risk of a substantial continuation to the downside for the days ahead.

However, we have seen the price revert and burst through the neckline and thus rendering the setup useless. Instead, the bulls are back in control and staying the course with prospects of a move into the 1.37s and 1.38s.
