Talking Points

  • NZD/USD Technical Strategy: Shorts Preferred
  • Piercing Line Pattern Awaits Confirmation
  • Breach of 0.7730 Needed Open ’12 Low Near 0.7450

NZD/USD is in the process of producing a Piercing Line pattern on the daily after bouncing off the 0.7730 floor. The close of the current candle and an ensuing up-day would be required to suggest a base. However, within the context of a broader downtrend on the daily a sustained advance may prove difficult. A close below the pair’s recent lows would set the scene for a descent on the 2012 low near 0.7450.
