NZD/USD Analysis

The level at 0.6783 has continued to be significant but has been messed around now too much to be really useful. Therefore the chart below shows nothing between 0.6872 and 0.6700. The NZD has been the strongest currency over recent weeks but has not made new highs against the USD over recent days. This is mainly due to the USD showing some strength.

If the FOMC minutes on Wednesday weaken the USD, this will probably be the best pair to be long of, so a pull back to a price between 0.6700 and 0.6740 could be a great area in which to build a long position.

NZDUSD

There is nothing due today regarding either the NZD or the USD.
