FXStreet (Córdoba) - The GBP/CAD cross ends the day nearly flat around 2.0260, having found selling interest on an approach to the 2.0325 region, a strong static resistance level that has capped advances several times since early October.
Crude oil prices seesawed between gains and losses, with WTI crude oil futures declining down to $40.10 a barrel before recovering some $2.00 before the daily close, leading to some swings in Canadian dollar, which led the way in the cross.
