USD/CAD climbs on remarkably positive NFP data

The USD/CAD resumed its uptrend once it reclaimed the February 1 daily high at 1.3379. the pair climbs in the US trading session after hitting a daily low of 1.3311 before Wall Street opened.

The strong US jobs report boosted the US dollar, the strongest currency across the forex board. At the time of writing, the pair USD/CAD exchanges hand at 1.3402.

Technically; the USD/CAD is still neutral-to-upward biased, though it reclaimed some resistance levels after testing the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) two days ago. On its way ahead to the green territory, the USD/CAD pair conquered an upslope-support trendline that was broken on January 31, which means the uptrend could resume shortly.

The USD/CAD first support would be the 1.3400 mark. Once cleared, the USD/CAD might test the 20-day EMA at 1.3388, followed by a downslope trendline turned support at 1.3355-65, and then the 1.3300 psychological barrier.
