Talking Points

  • NZD/USD Technical Strategy: Pending Short
  • Short Body Sessions Denote Indecision Near 0.8060
  • Daily Close Below 0.8060 To Open Aug ’13 Lows

NZD/USDcontinues to keep traders in suspense near its recent lows with an absence of clear directional signals from candlestick patterns. Several short body sessions indicates hesitation from traders to lead the pair lower. Yet after a Piercing Line pattern failed to find confirmation a recovery for the Kiwi may also prove difficult. A daily close below the 0.8060 hurdle could open some significant room before buying interest is renewed at the August 2013 low near 0.7750.
