FxWirePro: USD/CAD resumes downside after failing to break 1.3300 levels

  • The USD/CAD pair declined in the US session on Friday as oil prices recovered, while dollar dipped after weaker-than-expected U.S. housing data fueled doubts that whether the Federal Reserve will be able to raise interest rates again this year.
     
  • Prices of oil, one of Canada's major exports, edged up from 2017 lows but remained on track for a fourth consecutive week of losses because of excess supplies.
     
  • The ongoing weakness is set to continue for this pair as the resistance level at 1.3378 is likely to act as strong barrier to the bulls and bring a further decline towards lower levels.
     
  • To the upside, the strong resistance can be seen at 1.3300, a break above will take the pair towards next resistance level at 1.3378.
     
  • To the downside immediate support can be seen at 1.3222 levels, a break below will open the door towards next level at 1.3160.
