The Canadian Dollar weakened against the US Dollar on Friday and ended its run of weekly gains as the following charts will show.

Data from the US boosted the greenback and sank risk appetite, weighing on the high beta currencies, such as the CAD, as it could make it harder for the Federal Reserve to bring inflation under control.

The hourly chart has the 1.3390s as the first support to break which will put the hourly support line under pressure. If this were to break, we will be looking at a move below .13380 guarding a 50% mean reversion.
