Since April 2016, the USD/CAD pair has been trending upward within the depicted ascending channel.

In December 2016, a bullish breakout above 1.3300 (50% Fibonacci level) was expected to allow a further advance toward 1.3700-1.3750 (the upper limit of the depicted channel).

However, significant bearish rejection was expressed around 1.3580 (recently established top).

During the bearish pullback, the price level of 1.3300 (50% Fibonacci Level) failed to provide enough support to the pair.

This allowed a further bearish movement toward the price level of 1.2970 (61.8% Fibonacci level) where a valid BUY entry was offered in February 2017.

A few weeks ago, the bullish breakout above 1.3300 (50% Fibonacci Level) enhanced a further advance toward 1.3440 and 1.3580.

As long as the USD/CAD pair maintains bullish trading above 1.3525-1.3580 (confluence of prominent tops), the market remains strongly bullish. Otherwise, bearish pullback should be expected towards 1.3300.

The expected bullish target would be located around 1.3950 and 1.4030 (the upper limit of the depicted channel and FE 100%).
