USD/CAD Daily Analysis - Pullback Before Major Bull Run!?USD/CAD bounced nicely off of 1.36300 for a nice 200+ pip run to the upside. We ended last week with a Daily Pin Bar Bear candle, and DXY (Dollar Index) was in a trading range. Where does that leave us for this week?
First, we're in a bull channel which means the probability of profit is in the bull's favor. I am looking for a long entry and have no interest in shorting the Daily chart at this time. Since our last candle was a bear pin bar, that may be an indication that we're entering a minor pullback and should wait until it concludes. The RSI is just above 50.00 and curling down, you may want another test at the 45.00 level before going up.
We also have established a minor trend line within the current bull channel with this last bounce. With a good bull signal bar in the 1.37000 area, I would consider entering a long with a stop loss just below the channel bottom and a take profit at the next Weekly previous high of 1.40000.
Key Points
1. Bull Channel, Always in Long
2. Last Candle was a bear Pin Bar
3. DXY in Trading Range
4. Look for at least a small pullback before longing.
5. RSI is just above 50.00, wait for a pullback
Until we see a minor pullback and bounce, I would wait to long and definitely not short unless it's on the lower timeframes (5m, 15m, 1hr).

USD/CAD Daily Analysis - Long at 1.36? Bull Channel ContinuesUSD/CAD has had a hard rejection at the top of the Daily Bull channel. Unfortunately, we did not close the gap between 1.39 and 1.40. Instead, we fall back down to the 1.36500 area and still have some room to fall. I would start longing around 1.36, look for entries on the 1hr or 4hr chart and hold a position until the top of the bull channel.
Key Points:
1. We're in a Bull Channel which means we have a better chance of profit longing.
2. Buy in the 1.36 area or lower.
3. Wait for a bull signal and confirmation bar closing on or near its high.
4. We still have a gap to fill up to 1.40. I would look for a long and hold at least some of your position to just under that level.
5. RSI has room to fall before a bounce. Use as a weak indicator supporting the first 4.
As always, trade at your own risk, you are responsible for your trades. I hope this analysis was insightful and useful.
