USD/CAD daily chart

On the other hand, the daily chart is highly bearish in terms of market structure. Monday's daily candle is on the way to forming a doji in a resistance area. The daily impulse is overextended and due for a correction and the W-formation is a bearish reversion pattern. The prior resistance in the formation, or the neckline, aligns with the 38.2% and 50% ratios as a confluence target area for the days ahead.
