NZD/USD (KIWI) ANALYSIS

  • Worsening US fundamentals highlight a potential reversal in NZD/USD
  • NZD/USD price action approaching a key long-term area, multiple scenarios considered and discussed
  • Scheduled risk events dominated by US data including final Q1 GDP and PCE data

NZD/USD Forex Technical Analysis – Vulnerable to Reversal Top Followiing  Test of Objective at .6626 - .6722
The NZD/USD pair has been suppressed for a while now but approaches a rather key level of support (0.6200) once again. This presents an interesting dilemma of a possible bounce of breakdown. Chartists will tell you that the more frequently a level is tested and respected, the more likely it is to eventually give way. Thus far, the pair has approached 0.6200 and the 61.8% Fib of the March 2020 major move without continued downside momentum.

Fundamental factors supporting another bounce off the 0.6200 level include China’s supportive monetary policy amid scattered lockdowns and slower growth. Nevertheless, IMF forecast China to recover faster than the US into 2023 which bodes well for the Kiwi as China is new Zealand’s largest trading partner. Looking at the US dollar, we have already seen yields drop and market expectations around the Fed’s terminal rate appears to have peaked last week, around 4%. Concerning earnings projections, slower growth and declining consumer sentiment in the US could result in a softer dollar as recession fears gain momentum. Nearest resistance appears at 0.6395 if we are to witness a rejection of lower prices around key support.


However, if USD data moderates, resulting in lower market expectations around a possible near-term recession, the existing downtrend could continue. In the event of a breakdown of 0.6200, support comes in all the way down at 0.5915 – which corresponds with the 2004 and 2006 major pivot point.

    • Hi, is anyone else missing Monday's gold data? 27.03.2023.   I messaged IG and the "help"desk guy said 'try reinstalling the app. I did. That did not work.  I have no gold data for Monday 27.03.2023. Not on my phone app, not on my MacBook IG webpage and not on pro realtime. Prorealtime is not even loading up for me on the MacBook Pro.
