FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The Loonie is losing ground against the greenback at the start of the trading week, as risk appetite seems to be taking a breather after the recent strong advance.

The research team at TD Securities assesses "The bounce from support in the low 0.98 area may extend modestly& but the overall trend here remains towards a softer USD for the moment, albeit in rather weak (trend) fashion. Despite the bounce in spot Friday, the dip to marginal new lows still represents a challenge to the technical low/reversal seen in mid December and we note that spot remains below key moving average signals (40-day and 200-day). We prefer to look to fade USD rallies for the moment and continue to think a dip to the 0.9650/0.9750 range is possible in the next few weeks".

At the moment, the pair is losing 0.02% at 0.9840 with the immediate support at 0.9815 (low Jan.11) ahead of 0.9808 (Upper Bollinger) and then 0.9795 (61.8% of 0.9633-1.0057).
On the upside, a break above 0.9867 (MA10d) would bring 0.9891 (MA21d) and finally 0.9943 (high Jan.2).
