That makes no sense, it's trading at 10 month lows so it will break lower?

I think (and guess) that CAD will break higher. Macro indicators are pointing up, Canadian growth and interest rates are headed higher whereas US growth is flat. What's keeping CAD down are currency traders who see downside risk in the anti trade talk, lumber and dairy dispute and the housing picture.
