Talking Points:

  • NZD/USD Technical Strategy: Flat
  • Support: 0.7406, 0.7332, 0.7246
  • Resistance:0.7524, 0.7590, 0.7633

The New Zealand Dollar declined as expected after producing a bearish Evening Star candlestick pattern. A daily close below the 0.7406-18 area (horizontal pivot, 38.2% Fibonacci expansion) exposes the 50% level at 0.77332.Alternatively, a turn above the 23.6% Fib at 0.7524 clears the way for a challenge of the 14.6% expansion at 0.7590.

Prices are wedged too closely between near-term support and resistance levels to justify taking a trade on a long or short side from a risk/reward perspective. With that in mind, we will continue to stand aside until a more attractive opportunity presents itself.
