Yesterday, I mentioned a couple of entry points: an aggressive one at 1.2880 with stop at 1.2830, and another around 1.2750.

USD/CAD rallies as oil price beats a retreat (Forexlive)As we can see in the 1H chart, price managed to crack a rising trendline, but was still bullish as it pretty much held above 1.2850.

The ability to reach back to the upper bollinger band tells me bulls are back in control. The RSI is breaking above 60, which shows that no bearish momentum was developing. However, the RSI does not show strong bullish momentum at the moment - more like choppy momentum. Now 1.30 is a neckline, and if price rallies and breaks above 1.30, we can think about a bullish outlook outside of the very short-term.
