NZD/USD Analysis

I forecast yesterday that a break up above 0.6660 (shown by the green line in the chart below) could see a pull-back going all the way up to 0.6700 or 0.6750. This is in fact what happened, with 0.6750 now acting as resistance and checking the move up.

The non-event of yesterday’s FOMC report may make it hard for the USD over the coming days. However the NZD has no reason to stop being weak and global markets are in crisis mode, so the downwards trend here is more likely than not to resume before too much longer.
NZD/USD Signal

There is nothing due today regarding the NZD. At 1:30pm London time there will be a release of U.S. Unemployment Claims data.
