NZD/USD Analysis
This pair must be said to be in a long-term bearish trend now. It falls steadily with a good trend. The chart below shows a bearish situation, with the price currently looking as if it is turning bearish right now and giving a potential low-risk entry on a short trade, although it is not rejecting an obviously defined level. There is a dominant trend line only a few pips above the nearest resistance level of 0.6865, which could provide a good short entry if the price gets back up there.
If the price continues to fall, it is hard to say how much further it might go. The major psychological level at 0.6750 should be watched closely for potential support.
There is nothing important due today concerning either the NZD or the USD.
