GBP/CAD technical perspective

“Now holding below 1.9860, a major static resistance, the daily chart shows that the decline accelerated below a sharply bearish 20 SMA, whilst the technical indicators have turned south below their mid-lines, suggesting the decline may continue this Wednesday”, said Valeria Bednarik, chief analyst at FXStreet. “In the 4 hours chart, the RSI indicator turned lower around 30, the Momentum indicator hovers within bearish territory, and the 20 SMA has turned south well above the current level, in line with the longer term perspective”.

Support levels: 1.9790 1.9740 1.9700. Resistance levels: 1.9860 1.9910 1.9970.
