Finally, it spiked toward 1.2430. A high is formed near 1.2430 and the pair is now correcting gains.

The US Dollar formed a high near 1.3899 and recently declined below the 1.3765 support against the Canadian Dollar.</p><p>The pair even tested the 1.3636 zone and recently started a recovery wave. It broke a major bearish trend line with resistance near 1.3660.</p><p>There was a move above the 50-hour simple moving average and the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the 1.3900 swing high to the 1.3633 low. The pair is now showing positive signs and might aim for more upsides.</p><p>Immediate resistance is near the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the 1.3900 swing high to the 1.3633 low at 1.3765. The next key resistance on the USD/CAD chart is 1.3795.</p><p>If there is an upside break above 1.3795, the pair could rise toward the 1.3900 resistance. The next major resistance is near the 1.3920 level, above which it could rise steadily toward the 1.4000 resistance zone.</p><p>If not, the pair might decline again.
