After being strongly rejected by the 1-month low of 1.0910 overnight, the USD/CAD has escalated more than 100 pips to break the 1.0975 resistance and to trade above the 1.1000 key level at 1.1020, nearly fresh 1-week high.

If the pair holds above the 1.1000 key level, next resistances would be at 1.1025 and 1.1065. On the downside, supports are now at 1.0970, 1.0940 and today's low at 1.0910.
