FxWirePro: NZD/CHF breaks below 61.8% Fib, hits 3-year lows at 0.6337, bias lower

NZD/CHF chart on Trading View used for analysis

  • NZD/CHF breaks below 61.8% Fib, hits news lows at 0.6337, levels unseen since Oct 2015.
     
  • Price action is testing new multi-month lows every day, bias still bearish for the pair.
     
  • Kiwi remains offered across the board in response to poor NZ data and growing conviction among markets that the next RBNZ policy move will be a cut - rather than a hike.
     
  • The pair trades with a major bearish bias on weekly charts. Major trend is bearish, minor pullbacks can be used to stay short in the pair.
     
  • Break below 61.8% Fib has raised scope for further weakness. Scope now for test of 0.62 (July 2015 low) ahead of 78.6% Fib at 0.6093.
     
  • 21-EMA is stiff resistance at 0.6496. Break above could see extension of upside till 50-DMA at 0.6637.

Support levels - 0.63, 0.62 (July 2015 low), 0.6093 (78.6% Fib)

Resistance levels - 0.6356 (61.8% Fib), 0.6378 (5-DMA), 0.6496 (21-EMA)
