FxWirePro: USD/CAD Pauses Decline, Downside Risk Remains
- The USD/CAD pair continued its decline on Wednesday, as the Canadian dollar gained strength as the prices of oil gained further ground.
- A weaker U.S. dollar added to gains for the loonie. The greenback hit a one-month trough against a basket of major currencies, hurt by waning expectations that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates anytime soon.

- The immediate support can be seen at 1.2657, break below this level will expose the pair to next support level at 1.2622.
- Major resistance can be seen at 1.2780, break above this level will expose it towards 1.2840 levels.
