USDCAD technical analysis: USDCAD stuck in a standoff: Will Buyers or Sellers Prevail?

• USDCAD battles between strong support at 1.3762 and resistance at 1.3810. Break above 1.3810 could target 1.3860, while break below support may lead to 1.3726.

The USDCAD is caught between rock-solid support and formidable resistance, and the market is waiting for one side to crack.

On the downside, buyers continue to defend the 1.3762/1.3759–1.3749 zone—a powerful confluence of the 38.2% retracement, the rising 200-hour MA, and a well-defined swing high area. On the topside, sellers are standing firm at 1.3810, where the 100-day MA (Friday’s ceiling) aligns with the 100-hour MA, creating a brick wall of resistance.

This standoff is clear: stay below 1.3810 and the bias leans lower, with a break of the support cluster opening the door toward 1.3726 (50% retracement) and 1.36908 (61.8%).

A push above 1.3810 would flip the script, forcing shorts to cover and targeting 1.3860 and 1.3890. For now, it’s a textbook battle of levels—and traders are watching for the first clean break to set the tone.

Key levels:

• Resistance: 1.3810, 1.3860, 1.3878 (hgh from Friday)

• Support: 1.3762 / 1.3759–1.3749, 1.3726
