USD/CAD indifferent on data

The pair kept the composure after the Canadian manufacturing PMI tracked by RBC ticked higher to 48.9 during March vs. 48.7 previous. In the same direction, Markit’s manufacturing PMI in the US economy advanced to 55.7 in the same period vs. 55.1 from the previous month.

USD/CAD levels to consider

As of writing the pair is retreating 0.21% at 1.2659 and a breakdown of 1.2612 (Kijun Sen) would target 1.2600 (psychological level). On the other hand, the initial hurdle aligns at 1.2800 (high Jan.30) ahead of 1.2835 (2015 high Mar.18) and then 1.2845 (high Mar.13 2009).
