FX.co ★ Technical analysis of USD/CAD for October 18, 2016

General overview for 18/10/2016:

The top for the wave (b) looks to be completed and now the market is developing another sub-wave to the downside. The overall shape of this progression looks more and more like a complex structure instead of typical three-wave correction. Nevertheless, the near-term outlook is still bearish as there are uncompleted wave structures.

1.3022 - WS1

1.3102 - Intraday Resistance

1.3169 - Weekly Pivot
