AUD/USD longs at strong support at 7220/10 work again and so do shorts at first resistance at 7275/85 as we retest 7220/10.

Try shorts with stops above 7345. Shorts at first resistance at 7275/85 target 7240/35 before strong support at 7220/10. Take the profit. Longs here need stops below 7195.

NZD/USD holding below first resistance at 7020/30 is a sell signal targeting 6985/80, perhaps as far as 6955/45. First resistance at 7020/30 but strongest resistance again at 7060/70, stop above 7090. 

AUD/JPY first resistance again at 7955/65. Shorts need stops above 7980. A selling opportunity at 8000/10; stops above 8030. Any shorts at 7955/65 target 7910/00. Below 7890 tests the best support at 7855/35. Longs need stops below 7810.
