A bullish breakout above the previous consolidation zone between 1.2400 and 1.2800 was performed on July 15 (shown on the weekly chart). A long-term bullish target was projected towards the level of 1.3270.

A significant bearish rejection was observed around 1.3450. Since then, another consolidation range was established between 1.2800 and 1.3400.

A few weeks ago, a bearish breakout below the support level of 1.3075 was needed to enable a further bearish decline to take place towards 1.2900. However, an evident bullish rejection was expressed around this level.

A bullish breakout above 1.3400 (the upper limit of the recent consolidation range) enhanced the bullish side of the market on December 7.

A bullish visit towards the resistance level of 1.4150 (Fibonacci Expansion 100%) was expected as a bearish breakout above 1.3400.

Bullish persistence above 1.4150 enhanced the bullish side of the market towards 1.4600-1.4650 (141.4% Fibonacci expansion) where bearish rejection was expected.

On the other hand, the price zone of 1.3370-1.3400 remains the significant support zone to be watched for valid buy entries if bearish correction occurs.

Trading recommendations:

As we expected, a valid sell entry was offered around 1.4650 (141.4% Fibonacci expansion). It is already running in profits now.

S/L should now be lowered to 1.4350, while the next T/P level remains projected at 1.4000 if USD/CAD bears manage to break below 1.4100 (Fibonacci Expansion 100%).

On the other hand, conservative traders should wait for a bearish candlestick closure below the level of 1.4100 (Fibonacci Expansion 100%) to sell the USD/CAD pair.

S/L should be located above 1.4150, while initial T/P levels should be located at 1.4000 and 1.3850.
