Talking Points:

  • NZD/USD Technical Strategy:Flat

  • Support: 0.7469, 0.7405, 0.7301

  • Resistance:0.7532, 0.7616, 0.7721

The New Zealand Dollar is attempting to renew its down trend against the US Dollar but follow-through is lacking for the time being. Near-term support is at 0.7469, the 14.6% Fibonacci expansion, with a break below that on a daily closing basis exposing the 23.6% level at 0.7405. Alternatively, a reversal above the intersection of channel support-turned-resistance and the 50% Fib retracementat 0.7532 opens the door for a challenge of the 61.8% threshold at 0.7616..

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.
