  • GBP/CAD is extending downside for the 3rd successive day, trades 0.36% lower at 1.7039 at 1145 GMT.
     
  • The pair has slipped below daily cloud and 200-DMA support raising scope for further weakness.
     
  • Stochs and RSI are biased lower and MACD also supports further downside in the pair.
     
  • We see weakness till 1.68 (major trendline support). Breach at 1.68 mark could see further downside.
     
  • Retrace and close above 200-DMA can negate the bearish bias.
