$USDCAD

USDCAD closed higher due to short covering on Wednesday as it consolidates some of the decline off last Thursday's high. The high-range close sets the stage for a steady to higher opening when Thursday's night session begins trading. 

Stochastics and the RSI are neutral to bearish signaling that sideways to lower prices are possible near-term. If March renews the decline off January's high, the 62% retracement level of the 2011-2012-rally crossing at 98.35 is the next downside target. Closes above the 20-day moving average crossing at 100.03 would confirm that a short-term low has been posted. 

First resistance is the 20-day moving average crossing at 100.03. 
Second resistance is the reaction high crossing at 100.85. 

First support is January's low crossing at 98.89. 
Second support is the 62% retracement level of the 2011-2012-rally crossing at 98.35.
