NZD/USD Analysis
It is interesting that while the AUD/USD is selling off, the NZD/USD is hardly moving. It suggests the NZD has more inherent strength than its highly positively correlated sister currency. However it still seems to have difficulty in remaining much above the 0.6600 round number which is acting as local resistance. I still have a bearish bias overall but this pair, like most of the market right now, is really taking its time doing anything.
There is nothing due concerning the NZD. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of Unemployment Claims data at 1:30pm London time, followed by Existing Home Sales and the Philly Fed Manufacturing Index at 3pm.
