The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.
NZD/USD Analysis
Yesterday I had a bullish bias and saw possible long trade set-ups from retracements to the new support levels as likely to be good trade opportunities over the short-term. Although we have seen a resurgence in the U.S. Dollar over recent hours, which has swung the price down here in this currency pair, the support levels are all intact: the highest one at 0.7265 is just being reached at the time of writing. I still think a long trade here, if we do get a bounce at the New York open or soon afterwards, would still be an attractive trade, so I am not changing my bullish bias yet. There is no long-term trend.
There is nothing important due today concerning either the NZD or the USD.
