The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.

USD/CAD Analysis

The price has fallen by quite a lot over recent days and with the current strength in Crude Oil boosting the Canadian Dollar, it looks as if it is going to fall some more. However, the price is now approaching the 1.3500 level which could provide some support, and there is an obvious inflection point not far below that at 1.3455. Short trades down to that level will probably be the best opportunities in this currency pair today.
