USDCAD chart analysis

During this morning’s Asian trading session, USDCAD retreated to the 1.37250 level. We were close to falling below the weekly low, but the pair managed to stop. A new bullish consolidation and recovery to the 1.37600 level has been initiated. We are now testing the EMA 50 moving average and hoping for a move above its line. After that, we will get new support, and we can start further recovery with more relief.

Potential higher targets are 1.37800 and 1.38000 levels. We need a negative consolidation down to the 1.37200 support zone for a bearish option. With the new descent, it would be the third time in the last 24 hours. We go to a new weekly low with the impulse below and expect further pullback. Potential lower targets are 1.37000 and 1.36800 levels.

USDCNH chart analysis

On Wednesday, USDCNH rose to 7.19456, a new weekly high. After that we saw a stop in that zone and the start of a bearish consolidation to the 7.16000 support zone. During this morning’s Asian session, the pair managed to initiate a recovery from that zone and move above the 7.18000 level. To continue on the bullish side, we need a new impulse above the EMA 200 and 7.19500 levels.

Potential higher targets are 7.20000 and 7.21000 levels. For a bearish option, we need a negative consolidation to the 7.15000 level. In this way, we will form a new daily low and get confirmation of the increasing pressure on USDCNH. After that, the only option is to see a further retreat to lower levels. Potential lower targets are 7.14000 and 7.13000 levels.
