FX.co ★ Technical analysis of USD/CAD for October 10, 2014

General overview for 10/10/2014 07:00 CET

As anticipated yesterday, the corrective wave b green is testing the lower golden channel boundary from the downside. The key level to the upside is about to be broken and the alternate count might be confirmed/invalidated soon. To do this, the market must break above the level of 1.1210 and head into the last swing high at the level of 1.1240. On the other hand, a failure here on this price level will bo more supportive for the main count, that indicates one more wave to the downside in order to complete the corrective cycle in wave (2).

Support/Resistance:

1.1240 - Swing High

1.1211 - Weekly Pivot

1.1210 - Intraday Resistance

1.1154 - WS1

1.1124 - Intraday Support

1.1070-1.1080 - Demand Zone.

Trading recommendations:

Daytraders should consider to open buy stop orders if the level of 1.1211 is broken, with SL below the level of 1.1179 and TP at the level of 1.1240.
