Therefore, during the New York session this commodity currency continued trading in a bullish mood and the price reached a new sessions high at the 1.0406 level. At the moment, the USDCAD pair is trading around 1.0409 and we are expecting to see a drop in the b wave. In accordance with our wave rules and taking into account that wave B should retrace 50% of wave A, we can define the potential targets with measuring wave A with take profit at 1.0354 (50% of wave A). To reduce the risk, we can use invalidation point at the 1.0450 level as stop loss.
