Yesterday the USD/CAD pair was trading upwards developing last 5 wave of the bigger 3 wave (coloured blue). During the European session we could observe ascending move toward the 1.0156 level. Therefore, during the New York session USD/CAD continued trading in a bullish mood reaching a new daily high at the 1.0195 level. Today during the Asian session we could observe one more push higher where the USD/CAD pair reached 1.0226. We can consider this move as the end of 3 wave (coloured blue) of the bigger (3) wave (coloured green). Presently we are at the start of the corrective 4 wave. In accordance with our wave rules and taking into account that the wave 4 retraces 61.8% of the wave 3, we can define the potential targets with Fibonacci retracements (1.0053-1.0226) with Take Profit 1 at 1.0108 (50% of wave 3) and Take Profit 2 at 1.0080 (61.8% of wave 3). The resistance level at 1.0225 can be used as Stop Loss. Also it is necessary to consider the data concerning the CAD Core CPI m/m, CPI m/m and USD Treasury Currency Report, G8 Meetings, that can affect the rate of the pair.
