AI analyst comment
GBPCAD closed Wednesday at 1.88814, right on its high and above the 1.8789 ceiling of a range that ran from 1.86074 to 1.8789 all month. MACD has just crossed above zero with a +0.0018 histogram and RSI at 61.93 is rising, backing the breakout. Retail is 79% short, a strong contrarian tailwind as the crowd sells into the range break. Holding above 1.8789 opens the 1.89134 and 1.89536 pivots; a close back inside the range below 1.87686 would negate the move.

Mid-range inside 1.8607-1.8805 with weak signals, and the Canadian bank holiday thins liquidity.
