The USD/CAD pair has seen a marginal descent of 0.14% to $1.35227, entering the North American session on a slightly softer note. In the 4-hour chart, a minor pullback from recent highs has brought traders' focus to key technical levels that could dictate short-term price action.
The pivot point stands at $1.3436, a level that may underpin the currency pair's movements today. Resistance levels have materialized at $1.3510, followed by $1.3551 and $1.3630, each presenting a barrier to upside progression. Conversely, immediate support falls at $1.3393, with additional floors at $1.3316 and $1.3276 possibly providing a buffer against further depreciation.
Technical indicators such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) show a reading of 65, which, while on the higher side, doesn't yet suggest overbought conditions. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) presents a nuanced picture; with a value of 0.001 and a signal of 0.003, it indicates the potential for a slight bearish shift as the MACD line is below the signal line.
The 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is currently at $1.3501, just below the current price, suggesting that the pair is testing a critical juncture where bearish and bullish sentiments are contested.
Concluding this technical snapshot, the USD/CAD's immediate trend leans towards a neutral to bearish bias. Considering this, a sell limit order at $1.35419 could be strategic, with a take profit objective set at $1.34487 and a stop loss at $1.36054 to mitigate potential upside risks.
