USD/CAD intraday technical levels and trading recommendations for February 17, 2014

This image is no longer relevant

The bulls managed to hit fresh highs (around 1.1220) that haven't been visited since 2009.

Recently, USD failed to keep its gains against CAD, and the USD/CAD pair was pushed to the downside indicating weakness of the ongoing bullish momentum.

Friday's candlestick came as a bullish hammer. This indicates bullish presence around the price level of 1.0960.

It's important to note that the pair established a consolidation zone between 1.0850 and 1.0960. This renders the zone as a support area.

Breakdown of 1.0960 opens the way directly towards 1.0850 which comes to meet the uptrend line depicted on the chart. This may provide a valid BUY entry with SL as daily closure below 1.0850.

On the other hand, the nearest resistance zone is located around 1.1230-1.1250 corresponding to the 50% Fibonacci level of the bearish swing that extended between March 2009 and July 2011.
