The NZD/USD is appears to be continuing its Bullish run on the charts, closing higher than open on the last trading day of last week after testing a Bullish trend line which started in mid December.

AUD/USD caught a bit of a bid on Thursday as the trading community looked for reasons to sell the US dollar. The pair is a good barometer on global risk, and the commodity markets as a whole.
GBP/USD sank for the first part of the Thursday session, but found its footing later to bounce back in the end. The 1.53 level is massive support, and the fact that we formed a hammer at that level suggests that we are not quite ready to fall apart in this market yet.
