FxWirePro: NZD/USD breaking into new multi-year lows, risk-off to drive further weakness

Refer NZD/USD chart on Trading View

  • NZD/USD hits fresh multi-year lows at 0.6561, momentum still bearish.
     
  • The major has broken strong trendline support at 0.6675 in last week's trade and we see scope for further weakness.
     
  • Broad-market risk aversion on growing political crisis in Turkey and fears of contagion to EM markets is likely to keep the kiwi supressed.
     
  • Technical indicators on daily charts are biased lower. Momentum with the bears.
     
  • MACD and DMI also support further downside in the pair. Price action is well below daily cloud and major moving averages.
     
  • Next major bear target lies at 78.6% Fib at 0.6488. Violation there could see further weakness.
     
  • On the flipside, 5-DMA is immediate resistance, break above could see minor upside. Bearish invalidation only above 21-EMA.

Support levels - 0.6488 (78.6% Fib), 0.64, 0.6428 (Nov 2015 low)

Resistance levels - 0.66, 0.6650 (5-DMA), 0.6733 (21-EMA)
