Talking Points:

  • NZD/USD Technical Strategy:Flat

  • Support: 0.7493, 0.7444, 0.7340

  • Resistance:0.7608, 0.7680, 0.7762

The New Zealand Dollar has stalled against its US counterpart, with prices oscillating in a range above the 0.75 figure. A daily close above support-turned-resistance at 0.7608, the December 9 low, exposes the intersection of the December 18 bottom and a rising channel top at 0.7680. Alternatively, a push below channel floor support at 0.7493 clears the way for a test of the 23.6% Fibonacci expansion at 0.7444.

The available trading range is too narrow to justify entering a trade on the long or short side from a risk/reward perspective. With that in mind, we will remain flat for now, waiting for price action to offer a more compelling opportunity down the road.
