USD/CAD Price Technical Analysis: Strong Buying Momentum

USD/CAD price hourly chart

Technically, the USD/CAD pair escaped from the minor flag pattern signaling an upside continuation. The median line (ml) of the ascending pitchfork represents dynamic support.

As long as it stays above it, the rate should approach and reach new highs. Its failure to reach and retest this line announced strong buyers and bullish pressure.

The 1.35 psychological level represents the next upside target. It remains to see how it reacts around the 1.3501 former high.

A new higher high, a valid breakout should announce further growth ahead. The ascending pitchfork’s upper median line (uml) represents a potential target if the rate continues to grow.
