Talking Points

  • NZD/USD Technical Strategy: Shorts Preferred
  • Recovery Questionable With Reversal Patterns Lacking
  • Daily Close Below 0.8260 Opens Desecnt Towards 0.8060

NZD/USD has continued its grind towards the February lows at 0.8060 alongside an absence of key reversal patterns. A Doji appears to be taking shape on the daily, yet the sign of indecision may prove insufficient to catalyze a recovery for the pair.
