USD/CAD is breaking below 1.2635. Next support is located at 1.2568/46, which is the 200-day moving average (DMA) and 2021 uptrend, analysts at Credit Suisse report.
“We now see losses to potentially extend further within the broader range, with next important support seen at the 200-DMA at 1.2568 and then the uptrend from 2021 at 1.2554/46.”
“Being a major medium-term support, we expect 1.2554/46 to hold the current decline for an eventual bounce back above 1.2652/62 and next above the February low at 1.2634 – bringing USD/CAD back in the middle of the medium-term upward trending range.
“A break below 1.2554/46 would increase the risk of a more protracted weakness, with only a sustained break below 1.2449/48 definitely confirming a concerted swing lower within the broader range, which would lead us to shift our bias to a more negative side. However, this is not our base case.”
