FxWirePro: AUD/CAD breaks out of channel top, good to go long on dips

  • AUD/CAD has shown a decisive breakout at channel top, raising scope for further upside.
     
  • Canadian dollar weakens on the back of dovish BoC and falling crude oil prices.
     
  • On the other side, the Aussie remains buoyed by stronger Chinese industrial and fixed asset investment data.
     
  • China’s Jan/Feb (combined) retail sales Y/Y came in at +9.7% vs 9.8% expected and compared with 10.2% in the previous month.
     
  • Also China's industrial output Y/Y printed at 7.2%, beating expectations at 6.2% and 6.6% in the last month.
     
  • Technical studies are bullish on weekly and daily time frame charts.
     
  • The pair is now holding minor resistance at 1.0211, break above will see resumption of upside.
     
  • We see bullish invalidation on retrace and close below channel top at 1.0155.
