Talking Points
- Strategy: Flat
- Bullish Engulfing Pattern Awaiting Confirmation On The Daily
- A Hammer On The H4 Chart Offered An Intraday Turning Signal
NZD/USD’s latest bounce has left a Bullish Engulfing pattern in its wake. If confirmed by a successive up-session it may herald a revisit of the recent highs near 0.8000. Yet the scope for further follow-through is questionable amid the choppy range that has emerged in recent months.

The four hour chart offered a hint at an intraday upturn in the form of a Hammer formation. With bearish candlestick patterns now lacking the prospect of a pullback is questionable. Intraday resistance looms overhead at the 0.7970 ceiling.
