USDCAD posted a bullish, hammer reversal yesterday in line with a broad USD comeback. This reversal came after breaking the local 1.2200 area support – so the move back above suggests 1.2200 is a key support area.
The ability for the greenback to post a comeback despite recent negative news flow suggests that longer term USD bulls are finding value in getting involved here and we buy USDCAD with a view to a return back to the higher side of the range toward 1.2500.

Volatility on two data points out of Canada today (Retail Sales and CPI), rise in oil prices, etc.
