Sterling didn’t exactly start this year off on the right foot, surging U.K. bond yields put the government’s spending plans in jeopardy, dragging GBP/CAD sharply towards the long-term floor at the 1.7500 handle.

Bulls were quick to defend this support zone, though, as falling crude oil prices eventually weighed on the correlated Loonie.

Can this pair hold on to its gains and go for more?

Price is currently hitting a roadblock around the 100 SMA dynamic inflection point and R2 (1.7740) on its move up, possibly gearing up to retreat back to near-term support areas or the range bottom at S1 (1.7510).

Still, keep your eyes peeled for sustained bullish momentum or long green candlesticks closing above the latest highs, as this could pave the way for a rally to the area of interest at R3 (1.7850) or all the way up to the range resistance at R5 (1.8070).

Whichever bias you end up trading, don’t forget to practice proper risk management and stay aware of top-tier catalysts that could influence overall market sentiment!
