We're down to the broken resistance level at 49.60/70 and a hold here might turn it around once again, or at least halt the fall. That support might extend down to the 49.50 area

It's tough to trade the loonie when you have to watch two markets but the tech levels still count so are still watching. We may see a bigger pick up in the downside for oil if traders take some of this weeks profits off the table. For USDCAD, we have resistance right here at 1.2980. 1.3000, 1.3020 and then the stronger 1.3060/75 level. Look for support to come in at 1.2940/45
