USD/CAD

Strategy: Long at 1.0558, Targeting 1.0875
Weekly Profit / Loss: -86 pips
Total Profit / Loss:
-28 pips

We entered long USDCAD at 1.0558 as prices put in a Bullish Engulfing pattern on a re-test of resistance at the top of a falling channel that had guided prices lower since March. The pair has been trading sideways over recent weeks but the Engulfing signal has not been invalidated and we will remain long, continuing to target the 11/02 wick high at 1.0875. A stop-loss will be activated on a daily close below 1.0415.
