USD/CAD Signal Update
Yesterday’s signals gave a nicely profitable long trade from the support level at 1.3138 following the break of the bullish inside candle on the hourly chart. It might well have further to run but it might be a good idea to take some partial profits now as the move up seems to have slowed down.

USD/CAD Analysis
There has been no big change since yesterday, the only key event is that the support level at 1.3138 has held and the price continues to look bullish and threatens to break out of its long-term range.
The resistance level at 1.3241 is very key. A break above there would be a very bullish sign and could see the price reach 1.3400 quite quickly as there are no more key resistance levels until that number.
Regarding the USD, there will be a release of Building Permits data at 1:30pm London time. Concerning the CAD, the Governor of the Bank of Canada will be speaking at 5:50pm.
